The total amounts reported in the corporate unallocated schedule usually spiked during quarter-ending months, with the largest spikes occurring in those quarters when operational revenue lagged farthest behind quarterly revenue targets the second and third quarters of 2000 and the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2001. without the revenue that was recorded in the corporate unallocated account, worldcom would have failed to achieve the double digit growth it reported in 6 out of 12 quarters between 1999 and 2001.
