due to Microsoft stopping many of its production lines and facilities because of
Covid.
- An increase of $490 million (70%) in raw materials and $225 million (23%) in finished
goods with Work in Process stayed the same from 2020 to 2021. These increases are
most likely from Microsoft recovering as Covid restrictions was slowly lifted in the

depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset
or the lease term.
Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other
long-term liabilities in Microsoft consolidated balance sheets.

2020 which was $10.7 billion.

online products and
services
- Product revenue:
Microsoft hardware is highly dependent on with the underlying operating system and
cannot be properly used without one => the hardware and software license are accounted for
as a single performance obligation => revenue is recognized at the point in time when
ownership is transferred to resellers or directly to end customers through retail stores and
online marketplaces.
- Service and Other revenue:
Customers may purchase perpetual licenses or subscribe to licenses, which provide the
same functionality and differ mainly in the duration over which the customer benefits from
the software. => Revenue is recognized upfront at the point in time when the software is
made available to the customer.
If Revenue is allocated to software updates => The revenue is recognized as the updates
are provided, which is generally ratably over the estimated life of the related device or
license.
Service and other revenue also includes sales from online advertising and LinkedIn. =>
Revenue from search advertising is recognized when the advertisement appears in the search
results or when the action necessary to earn the revenue has been complete.
Microsoft enter contracts that can include various combinations of products and services,
which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance
obligations.
- Microsoft contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple
products and services to a customer.
- For a cloud-based service that includes both on-premises software licenses and
cloud services: Microsoft is required to determine whether the software license is
considered distinct and accounted for separately, or not distinct and accounted
together with the cloud service and recognized over time.
- Certain cloud services, primarily Office 365, depend on a significant level of
integration, interdependency, and interrelation between the desktop applications
and cloud services, and are accounted for together as one performance obligation.
=> Revenue is recognized ratably over the period in which the cloud services are
provided.

well as access to information remotely has exponentially increased.
Microsoft intangible assets are subject to amortization and are amortized using the straight-
line method over the asset’s estimated period of benefit, ranging from one to 20 years.
If intangible assets or goodwill are impaired, Microsoft uses their Fair Value Measurements,
which is categorized as Level 3 fair value – The assets are generally unobservable and typically
reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the
asset or liability.

Microsoft develop most of the products and services internally through the following
engineering groups:
services that transform the way customers hire, market, sell, and
LinkedIn
learn.
Costs incurred internally in research and development, in this case, a computer software
product, are charged to expense until technological feasibility has been established for the
product. Once technological feasibility is established, software costs are capitalized until the
product is available for general release to customers.
Microsoft determined that technological feasibility for software products is reached after
all high-risk development issues have been resolved through coding and testing.
The amortization of these costs is included in cost of revenue over the estimated life of
the products.
