Windsor Construction Inc. agrees to construct a boat dock at the Smooth Sailing Marina for $32,400. In addition, under the terms of the contract, Smooth Sailing will pay Windsor a performance bonus of up to $12,000 based on the timing of completion. The performance bonus will be paid fully if construction is completed by the agreed-upon date. The performance bonus decreases by $2,400 per week for every week beyond the agreed-upon completion date. Windsor has constructed a number of boat docks under similar agreements. Windsor's management estimates, that it has a 60% probability of completing the project on time, a 20% probability of completing the project one week late, and a 20% probability of completing the project two weeks late. Management does not believe the project will be more than two weeks late. Determine the transaction price that Windsor should compute for this agreement.

Sufjan Company has a contract to sell 200 units to a customer for $14,000. After 140 units have been delivered, Sufjan modifies the contact by promising to deliver 30 more units for an additional $60 per unit (the standalone selling price at the time of the contract modification). What is the additional revenue to be earned after the modification? - $6000 - $5400 - $6300 - $1800
Revenue earned after the modification is $6,000 computed as follows: [(60 units remaining from the original contract X $70) + (30 more units from the modification X $60)].
Which type of revenue or gain is generally recognized with the passage of time? - revenue from sales - revenue from fees or services - long term construction contracts - gain or loss from disposition

Stossel Company sells 300 units for $200 each to Liberty Inc. for cash. Stossel allows Liberty to return any unused product within 30 days and receive a full refund. The cost of each product is $120. To determine the transaction price, Stossel 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, Stossel estimates that ten (10) units will be returned, the costs of recovering the units will be immaterial, and the returned units are expected to be resold at a profit. What amount of refund liability should Stossel record at the time of sale? - $2000 - $800 - $1200 - $0
Stossel should record a refund liability of $2,000 (10 estimated units to be returned X $200 selling price)
Mocha purchases equipment, installation, and training from Lynne for a price of $1,000,000 and chooses Lynne to do the installation. Lynne charges the same price for the equipment irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. (Some companies do the installation themselves because they either prefer their own employees to do the work or because of relationships with other customers.) The price of the installation service is estimated to have a fair value of $20,000. The standalone selling price of the equipment is $1,000,000. The fair value of the training sessions is estimated at $40,000. Other companies can also provide these training services. Mocha is obligated to pay Lynne the $1,000,000 upon the delivery and installation of the equipment. Lynne delivers the equipment on May 1, 2017, and completes the installation of the equipment on July 1, 2017. Training related to the equipment starts once the installation is completed and lasts for 1 year. The equipment has a useful life of 8 years. What amount is recorded by Lynne as Unearned Service Revenue at 7/1/17? - $37736 - $18868 - $20000 - $0
The allocation of the revenue for this transaction follows the residual value allocation approach. As such, the standalone price of each performance obligation determines the base for the allocation as follows: (Fair value of the training session, $40,000 + Fair value of the installation, $20,000 + Fair value of equipment, $1,000,000 = $1,060,000). At July 1, revenue associated with the equipment sale and the installation would be recognized since these performance obligations have been satisfied. Lynne should record Unearned Service Revenue of $37,736 at 7/1/18 [($40,000/$1,060,000) X $1,000,000] related to the training
Under the percentage-of-completion method, how should the balances of Billings on Construction in Process and Construction in Process be reported prior to the completion of a long-term contract? - net, as revenue from construction if a credit balance, and as a loss from construction if debit balance - billings on construction in process as revenue and construction in process as inventory - net, as a current asset if a debit balance, and as a current liability if a credit balance - billings on construction in process as a deferred revenue and construction in process as a deferred expense
The balances of Billings on Construction in Process and Construction in Process should be shown at net, as a current asset if a debit balance, and as a current liability if a credit balance
One criteria that indicates that a company should disregard revenue guidance for contracts is when - each party's rights regarding the good or services to be transferred can be identified - each party can unilaterally terminate the contract without compensation - the payment terms for the goods and services to be transferred can be identified - the contract has commercial substance

Black Sea Construction Company has a contract to construct a $6,000,000 oil rig at an estimated cost of $5,300,000. The contract is to start in July 2017, and the oil rig is to be completed in October 2019. The following data pertain to the construction period. Costs to date: $1,325,000 (2017) $3,720,000 (2018) $6,300,000 (2019) Est. Cost to complete: $3,975,000 (2017) $2,480,000 (2018) 0 (2019) Progress billings during year: $1,200,000 (2017) $3,200,000 (2018) $1,600,000 (2019) Cash collected during year: $1,000,000 (2017) $2,340,000 (2018) 2,660,000 (2019) What amount of gross profit should Black Sea recognize in 2018 using the percentage-of-completion method? - $210,000 - $150,000 - $530,000 - $169,000
The entire $200,000 loss must be recognized in addition to offsetting any previously recognized gross profit. Gross profit recognized in 2017 is computed as follows: Gross Profit recognized in 2017: [(Costs to date for 2017, $1,325.000 / Cost to date for 2017, $1,325,000 + Estimated costs to complete for 2017, $3,975,000) = 25% X (Contract Price, $6,000,000 - Total estimated costs at 2017, $5,300,000)] = 25% X $700,000 = $175,000. ($175,000) + ($200,000) = ($375,000)
Black Bear Construction Company has a contract to construct a $6,000,000 bridge at an estimated cost of $5,300,000.

(Note that by the end of 2018, Black Bear has revised the estimated total cost from $5,300,000 to $5,400,000.) Costs to date: $1,325,000 (2017) $3,780,000 (2018) $5,430,000 (2019) Est. Cost to complete: $3,975,000 (2017) $1,620,000 (2018) 0 (2019) Progress billings during year: $1,200,000 (2017) $3,200,000 (2018) $1,600,000 (2019) Cash collected during year: $1,000,000 (2017) $2,340,000 (2018) 2,660,000 (2019) What amount of gross profit should Black Bear recognize in 2018 using the percentage-of-completion method? - $270,000 - $245,000 - $315,000 - $0
The gross profit to be recognized in 2018 is computed as follows: 2018 Total Gross Profit to date [(Costs to date for 2018, $3,780.000 / Cost to date for 2018, $3,780,000 + Estimated costs to complete for 2018, $1,620,000) = 70% X (Contract Price, $6,000,000 - Total estimated contract costs at 2018, $5,400,000)] - Gross Profit recognized in 2017: [(Costs to date for 2017, $1,325.000 / Cost to date for 2017, $1,325,000 + Estimated costs to complete for 2017, $3,975,000) = 25% X (Contract Price, $6,000,000 - Total estimated costs at 2017, $5,300,000)] = $245,000 gross profit to be recognized for 2018
A loss in the current period on a contract expected to be profitable upon completion in a later year is: - recognized only under the percentage of completion method - not recognized under either the completed contract method or the percentage of completion method - recognized only under the completed contract method - recognized under both the completed contract method and the percentage of completion method
The loss in the current period on a contract expected to be profitable, is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method, but is not recognized under the completed contract method
The new standard, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, - adopts "earned and realized" criteria - adopts criteria that de-emphasize the importance of contracts with customers - adopts an asset-liability approach for revenue recognition - adopts a revenue-gain approach for revenue recognition

Sherman Company enters into a contract with a customer to build a warehouse for $400,000, with a performance bonus of $100,000 that will be paid based on the timing of completion. The amount of the performance bonus decreases by 20% per week for every week beyond the agreed-upon completion date. The contract requirements are similar to contracts that Sherman has performed previously, and management believes that such experience is predictive for this contract. Management estimates that there is a 50% probability that the contract will be completed by the agreed-upon completion date, a 30% probability that it will be completed 1 week late, and a 20% probability that it will be completed 2 weeks late. What is the total transaction price for this revenue arrangement? - $486000 - $480000 - $460000 - $500000
Total transaction price is $486,000 [($500,000 X 50%) + (($500,000 - $20,000 = $480,000 X 30%) + ($500,000 - $40,000 = $460,000 X 20%)]
