Accrual basis is revenue must be recorded only According to the revenue recognition principle, a company cannot record
when it is earned and measurable revenue until it is earned -- that is, until that order is shipped to a customer
and collection from that customer, who used a CC, is reasonably assured
Revenue Recognition Method 1: Multiple Fo sales of bundles products, companies should assign individual values
deliverables to each of the bundled components → this is especially relevant in the
software industry
ex: apple selling iphone that has price of hardware + software rights -->
recognize revenue of hardware immediately, but recognize software
revenue evenly over several yrs
Revenue Recognition Method 2: Long-term projects Multiple methods:
1: percentage of completion method: revenues are recognized on the
basis of the % of total work completed during the accounting period (eg
Boeing plan example)
2: completed contract method: rarely used in US, this method allows for
revenue recognition only once the entire project has been completed
