Questions

What does EntityCommonStockSharesOutstanding mean in XBRL?

dei:EntityCommonStockSharesOutstanding is the XBRL concept for “Entity Common Stock, Shares Outstanding”. The taxonomy defines it as: Indicate number of shares or other units outstanding of each of registrant's classes of capital or common stock or other ownership interests, if and as stated on cover of related periodic report. Where multiple classes or units exist define each class/interest by adding class of stock items such as Common Class A [Member], Common Class B [Member] or Partnership Interest [Member] onto the Instrument [Domain] of the Entity Listings, Instrument.

Why do two companies use different revenue concepts?

Companies choose the most specific concept for what they report. Since ASC 606 many use RevenueFromContractWithCustomerExcludingAssessedTax rather than Revenues, so a cross-company revenue series has to check several concepts.

Why can the same period appear in several filings?

Comparative periods are repeated in later reports and sometimes restated. companyfacts keeps every observation with its accession number; this page shows the most recently filed value per period.
