Question #9
Saisaki Corporation grants a franchise to Mity for an initial franchise fee of 1,000,000.
The agreement provides that Saisaki has the option within one year to acquire
franchisee’s business, and it seems certain that Saisaki will exercise this option. On
Saisaki’s books, how should the initial fee be recorded?
Deferred and treated as reduction in Saisaki investment when the option is
exercised. Deferred revenue to be amortized. Extraordinary revenue Realized
Revenue
SOLUTION:
A franchise agreement may give the franchiser an option to purchase the franchisee’s
business. For example, as a matter of management policy, the franchisor may reserve
the right to purchase a profitable franchised outlet, or to purchase one that is in financial
difficulty. If it is probable at the time the option is given that the franchisor will ultimately
purchase the outlet, then the initial franchise should be recorded as liability. When the
option was exercised, the liability would reduce the franchisor,s investment in the outlet.
Since, Saisaki’s option to purchase the franchise is considered certain, then the initial
franchise fee (IFF) should be deferred as revenue. When the option is exercised and
Saisaki (the franchisor) acquires the franchisor’s investment in the outlet. Incidentally,
the entry on the books of the franchisor upon receipt of the initial franchise fee would
be:
Cash (or Notes Receivable) 1,000,000  
Deferred Franchise Option (Liability)   1,000,000

Question #10
Philip’s entered into a franchise agreement with Rusty. As per agreement on July 1,
2016, Rusty is to pay Philip an up-front franchise fee of 1,000,000 and subsequent
annual franchise fees of 50,000 over the next four years. Cost of initial franchise
services rendered by Philip’s during the year is 250,000 which is substantial, and it
estimates the cost of subsequent annual services to be 10,000. Rusty paid the annual
franchises fee for 2017, and Philip’s rendered the services for the year. In its December
31, 2017 income statement, the amount of realized franchise fee revenue to be reported
by Philip’s is:
25,000 300,000 250,000 50,000
SOLUTION:
In 2016, the initial franchise fee of 1,000,000 is recognized as revenue. Therefore, in
2017 the only amount of revenue to be recognized is the 50,000, the continuing
franchise fee.
