174 S.E.2d 863 (1970)
STATE of North Carolina
v.
Herman Eugene TURNER.
No. 7028SC280.
Court of Appeals of North Carolina.
June 24, 1970.
*864 Atty. Gen. Robert Morgan, by Staff Atty. L. Phillip Covington, Raleigh, for the State.
Scott N. Brown, Jr., VanWinkle, Buck, Wall, Starnes & Hyde, Asheville, for defendant appellant.
MORRIS, Judge.
Defendant contends in his first assignment of error that "concurrent" means "contemporaneous with and equal in duration", that a five-year sentence cannot be concurrent with a sentence of 18 to 24 months, that such a sentence is ambiguous and therefore he should not serve any longer than the sentences he was serving at the time the five-year sentence was imposed. He also contends that under In re Parker, 225 N.C. 369, 35 S.E.2d 169 (1945), the judgment is insufficient for vagueness because it referred to sentences then being served by defendant which were incapable of accurate computation without reference to matters dehors the record. These contentions are without merit and are overruled. Though similar to defendant's first contention, In re Parker, supra, is not in point as the question there was whether the sentence imposed was to run concurrently or consecutively, it not being clear from the judgment. The Court held that if the judgment did not make it perfectly clear that the sentence being imposed was to run at the expiration of any sentences presently being served, then the defendant would be given the benefit of the doubt and the sentence would begin immediately. As a result of that holding the defendant in Parker was discharged because he had served the period of the sentence imposed by the judgment in question while serving an earlier sentence. In the case at bar the court specifically stated that the sentence was to run concurrently with those acknowledged by defendant. Indeed, the court was granting defendant's own request that the sentence, if any, run concurrently. It must be pointed out that the two sentences in Parker were not of equal duration. To sustain defendant's contention that concurrent sentences must be construed to end with a prior but shorter sentence would obviously result in the abandonment of the use of concurrent sentencing procedures and consequently work to the detriment of all persons who may be sentenced for commission of a crime while serving other sentences. Defendant's second contention fails to consider the fact that the five-year sentence is longer than those acknowledged by defendant and will consequently exceed the prior sentences. The specificity requirements of Parker do not apply because the five-year sentence is to begin immediately and is capable of being accurately determined. In Parker the question was when would the new sentence begin, and based on the judgment, *865 the answer could not be determined with specificity.
Defendant contends in his second assignment of error that the indictment was defective because it attempted to include two separate offenses in one count and because it failed to state the offense in sufficient detail to bar a subsequent prosecution for the same offense. These contentions are without merit and are overruled. By his failure to move to quash the indictment defendant has waived his opportunity to contest the duplicity of the indictment. Blakeney v. State, 2 N.C.App. 312, 163 S.E.2d 69 (1968), and cases there cited. Defendant argues that the indictment charged him with the larceny of and receiving the same property and that since one person cannot be guilty of both, the indictment is fatally defective. We agree that larceny and receiving are separate crimes and that a plea of guilty of stealing property and of receiving the same property knowing it to have been stolen will not support separate, cumulative sentences. In re Powell, 241 N.C. 288, 84 S.E.2d 906 (1954). However, defendant's position is untenable in view of State v. Meshaw, 246 N.C. 205, 98 S.E.2d 13 (1957), where it is said:
"Our decisions are to the effect that, if there is a verdict of `guilty as charged' and the trial is free from error, or if there is a plea of guilty as charged, a single judgment pronounced thereon will be upheld. (citations omitted.) In such case, it is regarded immaterial whether the verdict be considered as relating to the larceny count or to the `receiving' count. In short, since it has been established that the defendant is guilty of one or the other, in either case the judgment is sufficiently supported."
The year, make, tag number and value of the automobile were specified in the bill of indictment, in addition to the name and address of the owner and the date of the larceny. This is clearly sufficient to bar any subsequent prosecution for the same offense.
For the reasons contained herein, we find
No error.
MALLARD, C. J., and GRAHAM, J., concur.
