421 Repairs and Maintenance - Racing
This account shall include the cost of labor, materials used and expenses incurred in the repair and maintenance of the race track and all the race track and backstretch structures, fixtures and general grounds other than those associated with concession (i.e., restaurant and bar) and parking lot operations. As a general rule, maintenance operations shall be construed as those operations required year-round, as opposed to those operations limited to the period of the racing meeting. For example, the cost of cleaning race track stands is not properly includable in this account as a maintenance expense because the incurrence of such cost is limited to the period of the racing meeting. Therefore, if the cleaning was performed by an employee of the licensee, the related labor cost would be accounted for either as wages of the racing operation or as contractual services of the racing operation if the work was performed by a labor force outside the employ of the licensee. However, if an outside labor force was contracted with to perform a service on a year-round basis, such as the upkeep of the general grounds, the associated cost would be properly accounted for in this account rather than as outside service. (See Account #440.)
If total costs of labor, materials used or expenses incurred under certain circumstances require allocation as to amounts applicable to repairs and maintenance, such allocation must be valid and accurate. If the accounting required for such allocation is not reasonable under the circumstances, then the costs in question shall be included in other appropriate accounts herein identified as relating to racing operations.
