Revenue RecognitionRecognition refers to the time when transactions are recorded on the books. The FASB’s two criteria for recognizing revenues and gains were articulated in FASB Concepts Statement No. 5.

8-3

Revenues and gains are generally recognized when:1. They are realized or

realizable.2. They have been earned through substantial completion of the activities involved in the earnings process.

Revenue Recognition

8-4

Revenue Recognition• Revenue is not recognized prior to the

point of sale because either:• A valid promise of payment has not been

received from the customer, or• The company has not provided the product or

service.• Exceptions to these rules:

• The customer provides a valid promise of payment.

• Conditions exist that contractually guarantee the sale.

8-5

AICPA Statement of Position 97-2 gives companies more guidance through a checklist of four factors that amplify the two criteria:a. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement

exists.b. Delivery has occurred.c. The vendor’s fee is fixed or

determinable.d. Collectibility is probable.

Seller Company receives $1,000 cash from a customer as the initial sign-up fee for a service. In addition to the sign-up fee, the customer is required to pay $50 per month for 100 months, which is the economic life of this service agreement.

EITF 00-21

A delivered element of a multiple-element arrangement is considered to be a unit of accounting if that delivered element has standalone value and if the fair value of any undelivered element can be objectively and reliably determined.

8-10

Appropriate Accounting for a Refundable Membership

Seller Company receives $1,200 cash from each customer as a fully refundable, one-year membership fee. It is estimated that the cost to Seller Company to provide the membership service to each customer will be $360 for one year. Seller Company can reliably estimate that 40% of the customers will request refunds during the year. Assume all refunds occur at the end of the year. There were 1,000 customers.

On January 1, Owner Company signed a 1-year rental for a total of $120,000, with monthly payments of $10,000 due at the end of each month. In addition, the renter must pay contingent rent of 10% of all annual sales in excess of $3,000,000. The contingent payment is paid in one payment on December 31.

Appropriate Accounting for a Contingent Rental

8-13

On January 31, sales for the renter had reached $700,000. On July 31, the renter had reached a sales level of $3,150,000. On December 31, the renter had reached a sales level of $5,000,000, of which $1,000,000 occurred in December.

Asset-and-Liability Approach to Revenue Recognition ExampleWilks Company sells a plasma TV screen and 2-year warranty to a customer for a joint price of $2,000. All cash is collected upfront. Other relevant data:• Cost of plasma TV screen, $1,500• Sales price of TV if sold separately, $1,785• Sales price of 2-year warranty if sold separately,

$315• Amount payable to a TV wholesaler to accept

responsibility to provide TV, $1,650• Amount payable to service company to accept

responsibility of providing warranty, $240(continues)

Asset-and-Liability Approach to Revenue Recognition Example

8-17

The fair values of the performance obligation liabilities create a contract signing. Recall that a TV wholesaler would charge $1,650 for accepting the responsibility of providing the plasma TV to the customer. Likewise, a service company would charge $240 for providing the two years of warranty. (continues)

The entry to record the cash asset and the two performance obligations created at the contract signing is as follows:Cash 2,000

Measurement Model

8-19

Revenue Recognition Prior to Providing Goods or Services

• Completed-contract method recognizes all income when project is completed.

• Percentage-of-completion method recognizes revenue throughout the term of the contract.

• Proportional performance method reflects revenue earned on service contracts under which many acts of service are to be performed before the contract is complete.

8-20

Percentage-of-Completion Method Requirements

1. Dependable estimates of:• contract revenues• contract costs• progress toward completion

2. Contract clearly specifies:• enforceable rights of the parties• consideration to be exchanged• manner and terms of settlement

(continues)

8-21

3. The buyer can be expected to satisfy obligations under the contract.

4. Contractor can be expected to perform the contractual obligation.

Percentage-of-Completion Method Requirements

8-22

Percentage-of-Completion Input Measures

• Cost-to-cost method is perhaps the most popular of the input measures. The degree of completion is determined by comparing costs already incurred with the most recent estimates of total expected costs to complete the project.

• Engineers are often called in to help provide estimates.

8-23

In January 2010, Strong Construction Company was awarded a contract with a total price of $3,000,000. Strong expects to earn $400,000 profit on the contract. The construction was completed over a 3-year period. The table shown next provides the actual cost that Strong experienced and the completion rate.

Percentage-of-Completion Method

• The entries we recorded using the completed-contract method are also the same entries that would be used for the percentage-of-completion method.

• The completed-contract method is “wrapped up” using the entries shown in Slides 30 and 31. The percentage-of-completion method requires the entries presented in Slides 32 to 34.

8-35

Revision of EstimateInstead of the previous illustration, assume that at the end of 2011, it was estimated that the remaining cost to complete construction was $720,000 rather than $650,000. This would increase the total estimated cost to $2,670,000, reduce the expected profit to $330,000, and change the percentage of completion for 2011.

• The entries for 2010 would be the same as those shown in the previous example.

• All entries for 2011 would be the same except for the entry to record revenue and cost.

8-39

Assume the same facts for Strong Construction Company, except the estimated cost to complete the contract at the end of 2011 was $1,300,000. Because $1,950,000 of costs had already been incurred, the total estimated cost would be $3,250,000.

Proportional Revenue Recognition

1. Initial direct costs related to obtaining and performing initial services on the contract

Most service contracts involve three different types of costs:

2. Direct costs related to performing the various service acts

3. Indirect costs related to maintaining the organization to service the contract

8-45

A correspondence school enters into 100 contracts with students for an extended writing course. The fee for each contract is $500, payable in advance. The initial direct costs related to the contracts total $5,000. Actual direct costs for lessons for the first period are $12,000. The sales value of the lessons completed is $24,000 (if sold separately, $60,000).

Revenue Recognition After Delivery of Goods

8-49

Installment Sales Method• Under the installment sales method,

profit is recognized as cash is collected rather than at the time of sale.

• It is used most commonly in cases of real estate sales where contracts may involve little or no down payment, payments are spread over 10 to 40 years, and a high probability of default in the early years exists.

8-50

Installment Sales MethodRiding Corporation sells merchandise on the installment basis, and the uncertainties of cash collection make the use of the installment method necessary. The following data relate to three years of operations.

Cost Recovery Method

If the probability of recovering product or service costs is remote, the cost recovery method of accounting can be used.

Because the cash collected in 2011 for 2011 sales is less than the cost of inventory sold, no gross profit would be recognized in 2011 on 2011 sales.
