Determining Transaction Price—Step 3
Transaction price
Amount of consideration that company expects to
receive from a customer.
In a contract is often easily determined because
customer agrees to pay a fixed amount.
Other contracts, companies must consider:
► Variable consideration
► Time value of money
► Non-cash consideration
► Consideration paid or payable to customers
18-29 LO 5
Determining Transaction Price—Step 3
Variable Consideration
Price dependent on future events.
► May include discounts, rebates, credits, performance
bonuses, or royalties.
Companies estimate amount of revenue to recognize.
► Expected value
► Most likely amount

Non-Cash Consideration
Goods, services, or other non-cash consideration.
Companies sometimes receive contributions (e.g.,
donations and gifts).
Customers sometimes contribute goods or services,
such as equipment or labor, as consideration for goods
provided or services performed.
Companies generally recognize revenue on the basis
of the fair value of what is received.

Facts: Venden Company sells 100 products for €100 each to Amaya Inc. for
cash. Venden allows Amaya to return any unused product within 30 days
and receive a full refund. The cost of each product is €60. To determine the
transaction price, Venden decides that the approach that is most predictive
of the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled is the most likely
amount. Using the most likely amount, Venden estimates that:
1. Three products will be returned.
2. The costs of recovering the products will be immaterial.

Product A and Product B to Obermine Co. for €100,000. The contract
specifies that payment of Product A will not occur until Product B is also

Product B are transferred to Obermine. Finn determines that standalone
prices are €30,000 for Product A and €70,000 for Product B. Finn delivers
Product A to Obermine on February 1, 2015. On March 1, 2015, Finn

Facts: As an almost entirely service operation (all parts and other supplies
are purchased as needed by customers), Tech Solvers provides few
upfront services to franchisees. Instead, the franchisee recruits service
technicians, who are given Tech Solvers’ training materials (online manuals
and tutorials), which are updated for technology changes, on a monthly
basis at a minimum. Tech Solvers enters into a franchise agreement on
December 15, 2015, giving a franchisee the rights to operate a Tech
Solvers franchise in eastern Bavaria for 5 years. Tech Solvers charges an
initial franchise fee of €5,000 for the right to operate as a franchisee,
payable upon signing the contract. Tech Solvers also receives ongoing
royalty payments of 7% of the franchisee’s annual sales (payable each
January 15 of the following year).
