If criteria mentioned above is not met, revenue should be recognized at a point in time (the company
recognizes gross profit when the contract is completed) referred to as the cost-recovery (zero-profit)
method/POINT in TIME. This method recognizes revenue only to the extent of costs incurred that are
expected to be recoverable. Only after all costs are incurred when gross profit will be recognized.
The performance obligation is satisfied when control of the goods or services is transferred from the
seller to the customer.
Usually transfer of control is obvious, and coincides with delivery.
Other indicators of transfer of control, the customer has (PAROL):
1. An obligation to pay the seller.
2. Legal title to the asset.
3. Physical possession of the asset.
4. Assumed the risks and rewards of ownership.
5. Accepted the asset.
The indicators (No. 1 to 5 as mentioned above) indicates that control has been transferred from the seller to the
customer (the customer is more likely to control a good or service if the customer has those indicators).
Sellers should evaluate these indicators individually and in combination to decide whether control has been
transferred and revenue can be recognized.
Under PFRS 15, the loss in Current Period on a Profitable Contract and Loss on an Unprofitable Contract are
similarly accounted for.
Profitable Contract – Loss in Current Period. This situation happens when, during the construction, there is a
significant increase in the estimated total contract costs but the increase does not eliminate all profits on
the contract.
I – Performance Obligations
1. Inting Corporation constructs highly specialized communication satellites. A customer in Hong Kong
recently placed an order for a cable TV satellite at a price of P20 million. The order was placed in April
20x6, and the satellite is to be delivered in one year. The customer has guaranteed to pay in full at the
end of 20x6, regardless of progress or cancellation. Inting uses “proportion of time” as its measure of
progress toward completion. When should Inting recognize revenue: at completion, or as the
construction is performed?
a. Over time c. No revenue recognized
b. Point in time d. No performance obligation
2. DJD Construction is constructing a building for Hotel Dian. Under the construction agreement, if for any
reason DJD can’t complete construction, Hotel Dian would own the partially completed building and
could hire another construction company to complete the job. When should DJD recognize revenue:
as the building is constructed, or after construction is completed?
a. Over time c. No revenue recognized
b. Point in time d. No performance obligation
3. Crown Construction Company entered into a contract with Star Hotel for building a highly sophisticated,
customized conference room to be completed for a fixed price of P400,000. Nonrefundable progress
payments are made on a monthly basis for work completed during the month. Legal title to the
conference room equipment is held by Crown until the end of the construction project, but if the
contract is terminated before the conference room is finished, Star retains the partially completed job
and must pay for any work completed to date. When should revenue be recognized?
a. No transaction c. Point in Time
b. No revenue d. Over Time
4. Regent Company entered into a contract with Star Hotel for constructing and installing a standard
designed gym for a fixed price of P400,000. Nonrefundable progress payments are made on a monthly
basis for work completed during the month. Legal title to the gym passes to Star upon completion of the
building process. If Star cancels the contract before the gym construction is completed, Regent removes
all the installed equipment and Star must compensate Regent for any loss of profit on sale of the gym to
another customer. When should Silica recognize revenue?
a. No transaction c. Point in Time
b. No revenue d. Over Time
During 2020 the customer agrees to a variation with increases expected revenue from the contract by

By December 31, 2019, three-quarters of the bridge was completed which was estimated by the
company’s engineering department; whereupon the third billing was made (cash had been made on the
previous two billings).
During 2019, a total of P8,400,000 had been paid for costs incurred, and total liability for construction
materials purchased still amounted to P2,000,000. It is estimated that an additional P3,600,000 would be
required to complete the construction of the bridge.
Because the information is incomplete, you are asked the following questions assuming the percentage-
of-completion method is used; an output measure (sales basis) is used to estimate the percentage
completed, and revenue is recorded using the actual cost approach.
1. How much gross profit should be reported in 2019?
2. How much revenue should be reported in 2020?
3. How much revenue should be reported in 2021?
4. How much cost was incurred in 2021?
5. The total costs of the contract?
6. What would be the construction revenue, costs of revenue and gross profit for 2019 and 2020
assuming that in 2019, the outcome of the construction contract cannot be estimated reliably (no
estimated cost to complete). (Ignore the revenue amount shown for 2019 and gross profit amount
reported for 2020.)
7. What would be the gross profit for 2020 if the cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion method/input
method (cost basis) were used rather than the output measure assuming that the estimated cost
to complete in 2019 amounted to P450,000? (Ignore the revenue amount shown for 2019 and gross
profit amount reported for 2020.)

**********************
Whatever is expressed is impressed. Whatever you say to yourself, with emotion, generates thoughts, ideas and behaviors consistent with those words
Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.
Develop an attitude of gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step toward achieving something
bigger and better than your current situation.
The remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the
fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our
attitude.
Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.
The only way to find the limits of the possible is by going beyond them to the impossible.
Nothing great will ever be achieved without great mean, and men are great only if they are determined to be so.

Answers/Solutions:
1. b – There are three performance obligations in the contract for franchise:
PO 1 - Rights to the trade name, market area, and proprietary know-how for 5 years are not individually distinct. Each
one is not sold separately and cannot be used with other goods or services that are readily available to the
franchisee. Combined rights give rise to a single performance obligation,
PO 2 - Training services, and
PO 3 - Equipment
Note: It should be noted that training (similar) services and equipment are distinct and can be sold separately.
Commingled Revenue (Point in Time and Over Time) - It refers to a single initial franchise fee for franchise rights, initial
services, tangible property such as supplies and equipment. The portion of the fee applicable to these assets shall be
based on their fair values and these assets are recognized upon transfer of ownership regardless when substantial
performances of services were made.
Therefore, Dominador’s recognizes revenue for the royalties when (or as) the uncertainty is resolved.
Dominador’s promise to stand ready to PROVIDE PRODUCTS/SERVICES to the franchisee in the future at a standalone
selling price is NOT ACCOUNTED for as a SEPARATE PERFORMANCE OBLIGATION (PO) in the contract because it DOES
NOT PROVIDE Doming with a material right (a “material right” is something the customer wouldn’t get otherwise, so the
seller is obligated to provide it or if the customer is in effect paying in advance for future goods and services such option
provides the customer with a “material right”, then the option should be accounted for as a separate performance
obligation)
Thus, revenue from those sales is recorded in the future when the sales are made.
2. c – Those combined rights (trade name, market areas and proprietary know-how) give rise to a single performance
obligation. Dominador’s satisfies performance obligation at point in time when Doming obtains CONTROL of the RIGHTS.
That is, once Doming begins operating the store. Dominador has no further obligation with respect to these rights.
It should be noted that training (similar) services and equipment are distinct and can be sold separately. Dominador’s
satisfies those performance obligations (services and equipment) when it transfer the services and equipment to Doming.
3. a - As of December 31, 20x7, only signing of agreement and receipts of upfront payment and note were made. Consider

1. On January 1, 20x5 Dairy Treats, Inc. entered into a franchise agreement with a company allowing
the company to do business under Dairy Treats's name. Dairy Treats had performed substantially all
required services by January 1, 20x5, and the franchisee paid the initial franchise fee of P840,000 in
full on that date. The franchise agreement specifies that the franchisee must pay a continuing
franchise fee of P72,000 annually, of which 20% must be spent on advertising by Dairy Treats. What
entry should Dairy Treats make on January 1, 20x5 to record receipt of the initial franchise fee and
the continuing franchise fee for 20x5?
Consignment Accounting
A consignment constitutes the transfer of possession of merchandise without the transfer of title from
the owner, called the consignor, to another person, called the consignee. The consignee acts as an
agent in behalf of the consignor for the purpose of selling the goods for a commission.
The shipment of goods to the consignee is not treated as a sale. Although a transfer of goods has
taken place, it is not the intent of either the consignor or the consignee that sale and purchase
transactions take place. Title of the goods remains with the consignor, and recognition of the sale is
deferred until goods are transferred to a third party by the consignee.
The merchandise is carried throughout the consignment as the inventory of the consignor, separately
classified as Merchandise Inventory on Consignment. It is not recorded as an asset on the consignee’s
books. Upon sale of the merchandise, the consignee has liability for the net amount due the
consignor.
When an entity delivers its product to a dealer for distributor for sale to end customers, the entity
needs to determine whether the contract is a sale or a consignment arrangement.
SALE The dealer or distributor Recognize revenue when the product is shipped
has obtained control of or delivered to the dealer or distributor
the product (depending on the terms of the contract.)
CONSIGNMENT The dealer or distributor Recognize revenue when the dealer or distributor
has not obtained sells the product to a customer, or when the
control of the product dealer or distributor obtains control of the
product (i.e. after a specified period of time
expires).
The following are indicators of a consignment arrangement:
The entity controls the product until a specified event occurs, such as the sale of the product
to a customer or until a specified period expires.
The entity can require the return of the product or transfer the product to another party.
The dealer does not have an unconditional obligation to pay the entity for the product
(although it might be required to pay a deposit).
In consignment sales, the consignor uses a modified version of the point-of-sale basis of revenue
recognition. That is, the consignor recognizes revenue only after receiving notification of the sale and
cash remittance from the consignee.
The consignor carries the merchandise as inventory throughout the consignment, separately classified
as inventory (consignment). The consignee does not record the merchandise as an asset on its books.
Upon sale of the merchandise, the consignee has a liability for the net amount due to the consignor.
The consignor periodically receives from the consignee a report called account sales that shows the
merchandise received, merchandise sold, expenses chargeable to the consignment, and the cash
remitted. Revenue is then recognized by the consignor.
Rights and Responsibilities of the Consignee
Before goods are transferred on consignment, a written agreement should specify clearly the intent of
the parties. The agreement should address such issues as the amount and type of the consignee’s
expenses to be reimbursed by the consignor, how the consignee’s commissions are to be computed,
when commissions are to be paid, the credit terms and conditions, if any, to be considered by the
consignee in granting credit, and the responsibility for collection of receivables. The agreement
should be complete and attempts to avoid potential points of conflict. For items not provided for in
the agreement that result in litigation, the laws of bailment and agency apply.
2. Consignment transactions not recorded separately – consignment transactions are treated like
a regular type of sales. Determination of consignment profit is not required because it is
already part of the profit of the entire entity.
Transactions recorded separately are more convenient on the consignor and consignee’s books to
determine the results of operations.

18. Kerianne paints landscapes, and in late 20x6 placed four paintings with a retail price of P250 each in the Holmstrom Gallery.
Kerianne’s arrangement with Holmstrom is that Holmstrom will earn a 20% commission on paintings sold to gallery patrons.
As of December 31, 20x6, one painting had been sold by Holmstrom to gallery patrons. How much revenue with respect to
these four paintings should Kerianne recognize in 20x6?
a. P 0 c. P250
b. P50 d. None of the above
Answer: c - P250, equal to revenue for the sale of one painting. Kerianne has a consignment arrangement with Holmstrom,
so should not recognize transfer of paintings to Holmstrom as sales. Kerianne would recognize Holmstrom’s commission of
P250 × 20% = P50 as an expense.
GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS!!!
*The great thing in the world is not so much where you are but in what direction you are going*
*There are only two things in the world to worry over; the things you can control,
and the things you can’t control. Fix the first, forget the second.*
The core principle of IFRS (PFRS) 15 is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration (payment) to which the entity
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
• PFRS 15 contains guidance for transactions not previously addressed (service revenue, contract
modifications);
• PFRS 15 improves guidance for multiple-element arrangements;
• PFRS 15 requires enhanced disclosures about revenue.
Revenue Recognition
However, IFRS (PFRS) 15 requires capitalizing them and recognizing them in profit or loss in line with revenue
recognition.
A good or service is distinct (or separable) if both of the following criteria are met:
1. The customer can benefit from the good or service in its own, or when combined with the
customer’s available resources; and
2. The promise to transfer the goods or service is separately identifiable from other goods or services
in the contract.
A transfer of good or service is not separately identifiable (or inseparable) if the good or service:
• is not integrated with other (not included with other products) goods or services in the contract; or
• does not modify or customize another good or service (cannot modify other product) in the
contract; or
• does not depend (independent to other products) on or relate to other goods or services promised
in the contract.
Therefore, If a promise to transfer a good or service is not distinct (not separable or inseparable) from
other goods or services in a contract, then the goods or services are combined into a single
performance obligation.
Some contracts contain more than one performance obligation. For example:
• An entity may enter into a contract with a customer to sell a car, which includes one year’s free
servicing and maintenance
• An entity might enter into a contract with a customer to provide five (5) lectures, as well as to
provide a textbook on the first day of the course.
Step 3: Determining the Transaction Price
Amounts collected on behalf of third parties (such as sales tax or VAT) are excluded.
The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts,
or both.
• The transfer price does not include amounts collected for third parties (i.e. sales taxes or VAT).
• The effects of the following must be considered when determining the transaction price:
➢ the time value of money (the time value of money does not need to be considered if the length
of the contract is less than one year);
➢ any non-cash consideration is measured at fair value.
➢ estimates of variable consideration
➢ any consideration payable to the customer (is treated as a reduction in the transaction price
unless the payment is entirely unrelated, e.g. for goods or services purchased from the
customer).
Time Value of Money
Financing
If there is a significant financing component, then the consideration receivable needs to be
discounted to present value using the rate at which the customer would borrow.
The refund liability should equal the consideration received (or receivable) that the entity does not
expect to be entitled to.
• If the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount, the variable
consideration must be estimated
• Price dependent on future events
• Examples of variable consideration:
1. Volume discounts
2. Refunds or rebates (e.g., for late completion)
3. Rights of return
4. Incentives (e.g. for early completion)
5. Royalties (AFAR-05) or performance bonuses or customer referral bonuses
6. Entertainment and Media – Royalties (AFAR-05)
7. Health care – Medicare and Medical reimbursements
8. Price concession
9. Telecommunication – rebates
10. Construction – Incentive payments (AFAR-04)
• One of two methods should be used to estimate the amount of variable consideration of
revenue to recognize whichever method gives the best prediction:
1. Expected value
2. Most likely amount
The chosen method should be applied consistently throughout the contract.
• Variable consideration may be attributable to:
1. an entire contract; or
2. a specific part of a contract (e.g., part of the performance obligations or part of the
distinct goods or services promised in a single performance obligation)
Sometimes a transaction price is uncertain because some of the price depends on the
outcome of future events. Contracts that include this variable consideration are
commonplace in many industries, including construction (incentive payments),
entertainment (talent fees) and media (royalties), health care (PhilHealth, Medicard
reimbursements, etc.), manufacturing (volume discounts and product returns), and
telecommunications (rebates).
Estimating Variable Consideration
When an amount to be received depends on some uncertain future event, the seller still
should include the uncertain amount in the transaction price by estimating it.
▪ Expected Value: the sum of possible amounts or probability-weighted amount in a
range of possible consideration amounts:
1. May be appropriate if a company has a large number of contracts with similar
characteristics.
2. Can be based on a limited number of discrete outcomes and probabilities.
▪ Most Likely Amount: The single most likely amount in a range of possible consideration
outcomes.
On the other hand, if only two outcomes are possible, the most likely amount might be the
best indication of the amount the seller will likely receive
Stand-alone selling-price – the price at which entity would sell a promised good or service separately to a
customer.
• The best evidence of stand-alone selling price is the observable price of a good or service when it
is sold separately.
• If a stand-alone selling price is not directly observable, then the entity estimates the stand-alone
selling price.
➢ The allocation is made at the beginning of the contract and is not adjusted for subsequent
changes in the stand-alone selling price.
Allocate the Total Transaction Price:
• Based on the relative fair values of the Separate Performance Obligations in proportion to the stand-
alone selling prices.
• If not available, companies should use their best estimate of what the good or service might sell for
as a standalone unit.
• If a customer is offered a discount (normal) for purchasing a bundle of goods and services, then the
discount should be allocated across all performance obligations within the contract in proportion
to their stand-alone selling prices (unless observable evidence suggests that this would be
inaccurate.)
There are three ways of transaction price allocation:
1. Adjusted market assessment approach – determine how goods or services will be sold and estimate
the price those customers are willing to pay. This may include the price of the competitor’s for similar
goods or services with price adjustments to reflect normal costs and profit.
The seller considers what it could sell the product or services for in the market in which it normally
conducts business, perhaps referencing prices charged by competitors.
2. Estimated cost plus a margin approach – project the estimated costs of satisfying a performance
obligation and add a normal profit.
The seller estimates its costs of satisfying a performance obligation and then adds an appropriate
profit margin.
3. Residual approach – is the standalone selling price is highly variable or uncertain as to its
occurrence, then a company may estimate the standalone sales price by reference to total
transaction price less the sum of the observable standalone selling prices the goods or services
made in the contract.
The seller estimates an unknown (or highly uncertain) stand-alone selling price by subtracting the
sum of the known or estimated stand-alone selling prices from the total transaction price.
The residual approach is allowed only if the stand-alone selling price is highly uncertain, either
because:
a. the seller hasn’t previously sold the good or service and hasn’t yet determined a price for it,
or
b. the seller provides the same good or service to different customers at substantially different
prices.
Step 5 – Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.
Control over the computer has been passed to the customer, so the full revenue of P36,000 should be
recognized on December 1, 20x8 (point in time).
The technical support is provided over time, so revenue from this should be recognized over time. In
the year ended December 31, 20x8, revenue of P1,200 (1/12 xP14,400) should be recognized from
the provision of technical support.
In Summary Form:
A. We recognize revenue at a point in time when we don’t qualify for recognizing revenue over
time.
B. The performance obligation is satisfied when control of the goods or services is transferred from
the seller to the customer.
C. Usually transfer of control is obvious, and coincides with delivery.
D. Other indicators of transfer of control: the customer has
1. An obligation to pay the seller.
2. Legal title to the asset.
3. Physical possession of the asset.
4. Assumed the risks and rewards of ow nership.
5. Accepted the asset.
The indicators as mentioned in letter “D” above indicates that control has been transferred from the
seller to the customer (the customer is more likely to control a good or service if the customer has
those indicators).
Sellers should evaluate these indicators individually and in combination to decide whether control
has been transferred and revenue can be recognized.

To record earned revenue.
In Summary Form:
A. Revenue should be recognized over time if goods and services are transferred over time to the
customer.
B. Revenue can be recognized over time if one of the following criteria is met: (Refer to AFAR-04)
1. The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the seller’s work as it is
performed, or
2. The customer controls the asset as it is created or enhanced i.e., when the company’s
performance creates or enhances an asset, (e.g., work in process or when a contractor builds
an extension into a customer’s existing school building), or
3. The seller is creating an asset that has no alternative use to the seller, and the seller has the
legal right to receive payment for progress to date, as when a company manufactures
customized product.
Therefore, in the example above, the performance obligations are satisfied:
• At the time of the sale (point in time), i.e.., December 1 amounted to P36,000 and
• Over time on installment basis, i.e., every end of the month starting December 31 amounted to
P1,200 (P14,400/12 months).

c. P0 for network service and P13,200 for Apple I-Phone Handset
d. P10,473 network service and P3,927 for Apple I-Phone Handset
IFRS (PFRS) 15 requires allocating the transaction price to individual performance obligations. In this
case, the telecommunications company must allocate total contract price between the revenue
from the sale of handset and sale of monthly plan.

5. Recognize revenue when (or as) an entity satisfies a performance obligation: timing of revenue
recognition?
a. None, since there is no contract
b. Network service (PO1) and for Apple I-Phone Handset (PO2) – both overtime
c. Network service (PO1) - over time and for Apple I-Phone Handset (PO2) – point in time
d. Network service (PO1)– point in time and for Apple I-Phone Handset (PO2) – over time
PO1: Network services (monthly plan) - over time, as monthly network services are provided.
PO2: Apple I-Phone Handset - at the point of time, when handset is delivered to Kim Dorothy
6. On March 1, 20x7, the amount of accounts receivable to be recorded
a. None c. P 8,727.50
b. P3,927.00 d. P12,654.50
7. On March 1, 20x7, the revenue from sales of goods amounted to:
a. None c. P 8,727.50
b. P 3,927.00 d. P12,654.50
Solution Guide:
As a result, the timing of revenue recognition changes and another implication of this treatment is that
the revenue recognition does not correspond with monthly billing to customers, as there will be some
deferral accounts involved.
* Contract Liability – a company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which
the company has received consideration from the customer or consideration is due from the
customer (i.e. the customer pays or owes payment before the entity performs).
If the cash received exceeds the revenue recognized to date, there will be a contract liability
(acting effectively as deferred income).
A contract liability is generally referred to as Unearned Sales Revenue, Unearned Service Revenue,
or any appropriate account title.
If a contract is loss making, there will be a provision recorded to recognize the full loss under the
onerous contract, as per PAS (IAS) 37. This can either be termed as a contract liability or a provision.

Items 5 to 7 are based on the following information:
AgriFoods, Inc. prepares and delivers agricultural products to industrial-scale kitchens and food service pr
oviders. One of its key customers is Home Kitchen & Co., which provides cafeteria solutions for corporation
s and universities. On January 1, 20x6, AgriFoods obtained a one-year contract to supply a pre-specified a
mount of vegetables to Home Kitchen, and received P600,000 in cash. Then, on March 15, AgriFoods hire
d Home to run one of its employee cafeterias for a period of six months, from April to September, and
paid P70,000 in cash. For similar arrangements, Home usually charged P50,000.
8. On June 1, 20x5, Johnson & Sons sold equipment to James Landscaping Services. In exchange for a
zero-interest bearing note with a face value of P55,000, with payment due in 12 months. The fair value
of the equipment on the date of sale was P50,000. The amount of revenue to be recognized on this
transaction in 20x5 is
a. P55,000. c. P50,000
b. P5,000 d. P50,000 sales revenue and P2,917
interest revenue
Answer: (d) - (P55,000 − P50,000) 7/12 = P2,917.
9. P & G Auto Parts sells parts to AAA Car Repair during 20x5. P&G offers rebates of 2% on purchases up to
P30,000 and 3% on purchases above P30,000 if the customer’s purchases for the year exceed P100,000.
In the past, AAA normally purchases P150,000 in parts during a calendar year. On March 25, 20x5, AAA
Car Repair purchased P37,000 of parts. The journal entry to record the sale includes a
a. debit to Accounts Receivable for c. credit to Sales Revenue for P35,890
P37,000
b. debit to Accounts Receivable for d. credit to Sales Revenue for P36,260
P36,260.
Answer: (c) - P37,000− (P37,000 .03) = P35,890.

10. Joey & Co. manufactures various types of golf clubs to third party vendors. On April 1, 20x6, Joey delivers
a large quantity of golf clubs to Aparri Country Club. Under the sales agreement, Aparri is obligated to
pay Joey & Co.P200,000 within six months. On May 1, Joey & Co. purchases for cash the right to
advertise its products during Aparri’s annual golf tournament event for P3,000. Aparri normally charges
P2,500 for such services. On August 15, Aparri pays Joey & Co. all amounts owed. The amount of
revenue that Joey & Co. should recognize on its sale of golf clubs to Aparri:
a. Zero c. P200,000
b. P199,500 d. P203,000
Answer: (b) - At the time of original sale (April 1, 20x6), there was no indication that Joey & Co. would purchase a service from
Aparri at a price higher than its fair value. Hence, the original sale would be recorded based on the full transaction price of
P200,000. Then, onMay 1, Joey & Co.’s overpayment of P500 for the services offered by the buyer (Aparri) reduces the original
transaction price by P500, so Joey & Co. should debited sales revenue as part of the transaction. Thus, Joey & Co. recognizes
revenue of P200,000 – P500 = P199,500.

b. P63,000 d. P90,000
Answer: (c) - The scales will be allocated P54,000 of transaction price (computed as P90,000 × (P60,000 ÷ (P60,000 + 10,000 +
30,000). The software will be allocated P9,000 of transaction price (computed as P90,000 × (P10,000 ÷ (P60,000 + 10,000 + 30,000))).
The calibration contract will be allocated P27,000 of transaction price (computed as P90,000 × (P30,000 ÷ (P60,000 + 10,000 +
30,000). The revenue for the scales and software all would be recognized upon delivery on August 1, 20x6. Since the calibration
contract has a one-year duration and commenced on August 1, revenue for five months has been earned in 20x6, equal to
P11,250 (computed as P27,000 × 5/12). Therefore, total revenue recognized in 20x6 is P74,250 (computed as P54,000 + 9,000 +
11,250).
3. Assume that the scales, software and calibration service are viewed as one performance obligation.
How much revenue will Ortiz recognize in 20x6 for this contract?
a. P0 c. P63,000
b. P37,500 d. P90,000
Answer: (b) - If the contract has only one performance obligation, that revenue will be recognized over time as the Ortiz provides
the combination of scales, software and calibration service. No revenue can be recognized upon delivery of the computer or
software. Since the contract has a one-year duration and commenced on August 1, revenue for five months has been earned
in 20x6, equal to P37,500 (computed as P90,000 × 5/12).
IX – Variable Consideration
Items 1 to 3 are based on the following information:
Sanjeev enters into a contract offering variable consideration. The contract pays him P1,000/month for six
months of continuous consulting services. In addition, there is a 60% chance the contract will pay an
additional P2,000 and a 40% chance the contract will pay an additional P3,000, depending on the
outcome of the consulting contract. Sanjeev concludes that this contract qualifies for revenue recognition
over time.
1. Assume Sanjeev estimates variable consideration as the most likely amount. What is the amount of
revenue Sanjeev would recognize for the first month of the contract?
a. P1,000 c. P1,400
b. P1,333 d. P1,200
Answer: (b) - The most likely outcome is that Sanjeev receives the P2,000 bonus (likelihood = 60%), in which case Sanjeev would
be paid a total of (P1,000 × 6 months) + P2,000, or P8,000. Therefore, Sanjeev would recognize P8,000 ÷ 6 = P1,333 each month.
2. Assume Sanjeev estimates variable consideration as the expected value. What is the amount of
revenue Sanjeev would recognize for the first month of the contract?
a. P1,000 c. P1,400
b. P1,333 d. P1,200
Answer: (c) - The expected value of the transaction price is P8,400, computed as P1,000 × 6 months + (60% × P2,000) + (40% ×
P3,000). Therefore, Sanjeev would recognize P8,400 ÷ 6 = P1,400 each month.
3. Assume that Sanjeev estimates variable consideration as the most likely amount. After Sanjeev has
recognized revenue for two months of the contract, he changes his assessment of the chance the
contract will pay him P3,000 to 70%. What adjustment to revenue should Sanjeev recognize to account
for that change in estimate?
a. Debit of P1,000 c. Credit of P1,00
b. Debit of P334 d. Credit of P334
Answer: (d) - In the first two months of the contract, the most likely outcome is that Sanjeev receives a P2,000 bonus (likelihood
= 60%), in which case Sanjeev would be paid a total of (P1,000 × 6 months) + P2,000, or P8,000. Therefore, Sanjeev would
recognize P8,000 ÷ 6 = P1,333 each month, and after two months would have recognized P2,666. Then Sanjeev concludes that
the most likely outcome is that Sanjeev receives a P3,000 bonus (likelihood = 70%), in which case Sanjeev would be paid a total
of (P1,000 × 6 months) + P3,000, or P9,000. Therefore, Sanjeev should have recognized P9,000 ÷ 6 = P1,500 each month, and after
two months should have recognized P3,000. The amount of adjustment Sanjeev should record is a credit of P334, calculated as
P3,000 - P2,666.
5. Assuming Thomas uses the expected value as its estimate of variable consideration, calculate the
transaction price.
a. P20,000 c. P54,000
b. P50,000 d. P70,000
Answer: (c) - The expected value would be calculated as follows:
Possible Amounts Probabilities Expected Amounts
P70,000 (P50,000 fixed fee + 20,000 bonus) × 20% = P14,000
P50,000 (P50,000 fixed fee + 0 bonus) × 80% = 40,000
Expected contract price at inception P54,000
Or, alternatively: P50,000 + (P20,000 × 20%) = P54,000
• Right of return is granted for product for various reasons (e.g., dissatisfaction with product).
• If a product is sold with a right of return then the consideration is variable. The entity must estimate the
variable consideration and decide whether or not to include it in the transaction price.
• Retailers usually give customers the right to return merchandise if customers are not satisfied or are
unable to resell it.
• The right to return merchandise does not create a performance obligation for the seller. Instead, it
represents a potential failure to satisfy the original performance obligation to provide goods that the
customer wants to keep.
• Economic factors, competition among manufacturers, and rapid obsolescence of the product
motivate these manufacturers to grant the distributors the right of return if they are unable to sell the
semiconductors.
5. Gianne Computer Company sells computers with an unconditional right to return the computer if the
customer is not satisfied. Gianne has a long history selling these computers under this returns policy and
can provide precise estimates of the amount of returns associated with each sale Gianne most likely
should recognize revenue:
a. When Gianne delivers a computer to a customer, ignoring potential returns.
b. When Gianne delivers a computer to a customer, in an amount that is reduced by the expected
returns.
c. When Gianne receives cash from the customer.
d. When a customer returns a computer.
Answer: (b) – Gianne can estimate returns reliably enough for the constraint on recognizing variable consideration to not apply,
so Gianne would adjust the transaction price for expected returns and recognize revenue in that amount upon delivery.
3. The journal entry to record the sale and cost of goods sold includes a
a. debit to Cash and a credit to Sales Revenue of P3,000.
b. credit to Refund Liability of P600 and a credit to Sales Revenue of P2,400.
c. debt to Cost of Goods Sold and credit to Inventory for P1,500.
d. credit to Estimated Inventory Returns of P300
Answer: (b) - P3,000 .2 = P600; P3,000 −P600 = P2,400.
6. On June 1st, Joseph & Company received a P500 deposit for 80 cases of wine. On June 10 th the
customer identified specific vintages that are included in Joseph’s inventory, and asked that Joseph
not ship the wine until June 20 so the customer could ready space to store the wine, so Joseph set those
wines aside for the customer, boxed and ready for shipment to the customer. On June 20 th the wine
was shipped and delivered to the customer. Joseph likely would recognize revenue on:
a. June 20th c. June 1st
b. June 10 th d. Upon consumption of the wine by the
customer
Answer: (b) - Bill-and-hold arrangements normally do not qualify for revenue recognition until delivery is made to the customer.
Prior to that point, control of goods is not viewed as having passed to the customer. However, sellers can recognize revenue prior
to delivery if it is concluded that the customer controls the product (the customer specifically identified the goods), there is good
reason for the bill-and-hold arrangement (the customer needed time to make space for the wine), and the product is specifically
identified as belonging to the customer and is ready for shipment (Joseph has a good faith deposit, the customer selected the
goods, the goods were prepared for shipment and set aside from regular goods for sale).
7. Horowitz Paint Shop sold P3,000 of paint to a local construction company for cash on June 25, 20x6.
Because of a flood in the area, the customer requested that Horowitz not ship the items from its
warehouse until July 3, 20x6, so Horowitz set aside the paint on June 25, packaged and ready to ship
on July 3.For the second quarter ending on June 30, how much revenue should Horowitz recognize for
the sale to the local construction company?.
a. No contract exists c. P1,500
b. Zero d. P3,000
Answer: (d) - P3,000. In a bill-and-hold arrangement, the key issue normally is that the customer does not have physical
possession of the asset until the seller has delivered it. However, since the customer requested that Horowitz hold the goods, has
been paid for the goods, and the goods are separated from Horowitz’s inventory and ready for shipment, Horowitz likely would
be viewed as shifting control to the customer in June.
Agent’s performance obligation is to arrange for principal to provide goods or services to a customer. IFRS
(PFRS) 15 requires an entity to determine whether it is the principal on the transaction or the agent on the
basis of whether it controls the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer.
An entity that is a principal in a contract may satisfy a performance obligation by itself or it may engage
another party (for example, a subcontractor) to satisfy some or all of a performance obligation on its behalf.
‘
An entity is an agent if the entity's performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of goods or services
by another party.
The distinction between a principal and an agent is important because it affects the amount of revenue
that a company can record. If the company is a principal, it records revenue equal to the total sales price
paid by customers as well as cost of goods sold equal to the cost of the item to the company.
Indicators that an entity is an agent and does not control the good or service before it is provided to the
customer include another party is responsible for fulfilling the contract; the entity does not have inventory
risk; the entity does not have discretion in establishing prices for the other party’s goods or services; the
consideration is in the form of a commission; and the entity is not exposed to credit risk
We view the seller as a principal if it obtains control of the goods or services before they are transferred to
the customer.
Control is evident if the seller has
▪ primary responsibility for delivering a product or service and
▪ is vulnerable to risks associated with
a. holding inventory,
b. delivering the product or service, and
c. collecting payment from the customer.
8. Which of the following does not apply to a seller who is a principal?
a. Has control over goods or services
b. Primarily responsible for providing goods or services to customer
c. Exposed to risks associated with holding inventory
d. Primary performance obligation is to facilitate the transfer of goods or services
Answer: (d) - an agent’s primary performance obligation is to facilitate the transfer of goods or services.
13. Assume AuctionCo.com promises to pay P200 to the supplier regardless of whether the bicycle is sold,
but the bicycle will continue to be shipped directly from the supplier to the customer. Under this
assumption, how much revenue would Auction.com recognize at the time of the sale to the customer?
a. No contract exists c. P200
b. P100 d. P300
Answer: (d)- If AuctionCo must pay the bicycle owner the P300 price regardless of whether the bicycle is sold, then AuctionCo
would appear to have purchased the bicycle and should be treated as a principal.
Warranties
• Examples of common parts of contracts that are not performance obligations:
Prepayments (it’s part of the transaction price).
Right of return (it’s part of the performance obligation to deliver acceptable goods and
services).
Quality-assurance warranties (it is part of the performance obligation to deliver goods and
services that are free of defects).
• Two types of warranties to customers:
Product meets agreed-upon specifications in contract at time product is sold.
a. (Not a PO) Quality Assurance sometimes called as Assurance-type Warranty. Warranty is included
in sales price of product. A quality-assurance warranty is NOT a performance obligation.
b. (Separate PO) Extended warranty/Service-type Warranty. Warranty not included in sales price of
product. An extended warranty is recorded as a separate performance obligation from delivering
acceptable goods and services.
• An example of common parts of contracts that is considered as a performance obligation is extended
warranty.
b. the warranty provides a service to the customer beyond quality assurance only assuring that the
seller delivered a product or service that was free from defects.
▪ What is a *“MATERIAL RIGHT” and how do you make this assessment?
If the customer has the option* to purchase the warranty separately and payment was made
for the warranty, then it should be treated as a distinct performance and the option should be
accounted for as a separate performance obligation, as an extended/service-type warranty
since the payment made constitute a “material right”.
▪ Options that provide a material right (a material right is something the customer would not get
otherwise, so the seller is obligated to provide it)
14. In which of the following is the option described not a performance obligation?
a. Customers accumulate points for every peso spent at Madeline’s Book Store. The points can be
redeemed for books once certain levels are met.
b. Customers can get 5% cash back for every P100 spent on eco-friendly products.
c. Customers can “buy two, get one free” at a menswear store.
d. Upon purchase of any name-brand TV, customers can purchase a 5-year extended warranty at a
25% discount.
Answer: (b) - 5% cash back is an adjustment of list price, and therefore must be considered when calculating the
transaction price. It is not a performance obligation.
****
Extended Warranty
16. Vacuums sell the Tornado vacuum cleaner. Each vacuum cleaner has a one-year warranty (quality-
assurance) that covers any product defects. When customers purchase a vacuum cleaner, they also
have the option to purchase an extended three-year warranty that covers any breakage or
maintenance. The extended warranty sells for the same amount regardless of whether it is purchased
at the same time as the vacuum cleaner or at some other time. Izzy Peredo pays 20% less for the
extended warranty if they buy it at the same time they buy a Tornado vacuum. How many
performance obligations exist in the implied contract for the purchase of a vacuum cleaner? How
many performance obligations?
a. None c. Two
b. One d. Three
Answer: (c) - Number of performance obligations in the contract: 2 - We need to consider three aspects of the vacuum contract:
delivery of the vacuum, the one-year quality-assurance warranty, and the option to purchase the three-year extended warranty.
Delivery of the vacuum cleaner is a performance obligation. The one-year warranty that is included as part of the purchase (the
quality-assurance warranty) is not a performance obligation, but rather it is part of the obligation to deliver a vacuum of
appropriate quality. The option to purchase the extended warranty, though, is a performance obligation within the contract to
purchase a vacuum. Customers can purchase that warranty at a 20% discount if they do so when they buy the vacuum, so the
opportunity to buy the extended warranty constitutes a material right. Also, the option is capable of being distinct, as it could be
sold or provided separately, and it is separately identifiable, as the vacuum could be sold without the option to purchase an
extended warranty, so the option is distinct, and qualifies as a performance obligation.
19. A warranty provided when a customer exercises an option to purchase a warranty is recorded as:
a. an expense in the period the goods or services are sold.
b. a warranty liability for all costs incurred after sale due to correction of defects.
c. revenue in the period that the service-type warranty is in effect.
d. an assurance type warranty which is included in the sales price of the product.

21. Conrad Appliances offers a contract in which customers receives the following:
• A new Conrad Pro washing machine,
• A warranty that protects against product defects for the first six months of use,
• An option to purchase a Perkins Pro dryer for a 30% discount (Conrad typically discounts that brand
of dryer 10%), and
• A coupon to purchase an extended warranty for P150 (extended warranties regularly sell for
P150).
How many performance obligations are included in the contract?
a. Four c. Two
b. Three d. One
Answer: (c) - The contract has two performance obligations. Delivery of the washing machine is a performance obligation. So
is the option to purchase a dryer, as it includes a discount that is greater than the customer could normally obtain. The quality-
assurance warranty is not a performance obligation, but rather is simply an aspect of fulfilling the obligation to deliver a washing
machine of appropriate quality. The coupon for the extended warranty is not a performance obligation, as it only offers a right
that customers would have absent the coupon.
Delivery of the vehicle is a performance obligation. The one-year warranty that is included as part of the purchase (the quality-
assurance warranty) is not a performance obligation, but rather is part of the obligation to deliver the vehicle of appropriate
quality.
The option to receive oil changes for free is a performance obligation within the contract to purchase a vehicle, because (1) it
provides a material right to the customer (since there was already a payment of P25) that the customer would not receive
otherwise, and thus counts as a performance obligation; (2) the option is capable of being distinct, as the customer could
purchase oil changes separately, and it is separately identifiable, as the vehicle itself could be sold without free oil changes.
The option to change tires for P50 also constitutes a performance obligation, as it is (1) a material right to the customer (since
there was already a payment of P250) that the customer would not receive otherwise, and thus counts as a performance
obligation; (b) this option is capable of being distinct, as a new set of tires could be sold separately, and it is also separately
identifiable, as the vehicle itself could be sold without a new set of tires.
23. Assume the same contract but that it offers customers an option to change all of the tires for P250 after
30,000 kilometers. How many performance obligations exist in the contract to purchase a vehicle?
a. None c. Two
b. One d. Three
Answer: (c) - There are two performance obligations. The option to change tires for P250 is not a performance obligation, because
customers can purchase the tires for the same amount at other times, so the option itself does not present a material right.
24. Entertainment Tonight, Inc. manufactures and sells stereo systems that include an assurance-type
warranty for the first 90 days. Entertainment Tonight also offers an optional extended coverage plan
under which it will repair or replace any defective part for 2 years beyond the expiration of the
assurance-type warranty. The total transaction price for the sale of the stereo system and the extended
warranty is P3,000. The standalone price of each is P2,300 and P800, respectively. The estimated cost of
the assurance-warranty is P350. The accounting for warranty will include a
a. debit to Warranty Expense, P800.
b. debit to Warranty Liability, P350
25. How much will Kim recognizes a financial liability on January 1, 20x8?
