Revenue RecognitionRevenue is the gross inflow of cash, receivables or other consideration arising in the course of the ordinary activities of an enterprise from the Sale of goodsRendering of services andUse by others, of enterprise resources, yielding interest, royalties and dividendsRecognition - Process of recording and reporting an item as an element of financial statement
Principles	The revenue recognition principle provides that revenue is recognized:when it is earned, andwhen it is realized or realizableRevenue is earned when the earnings process is substantially completeRevenue is realized when goods and services are exchanged for cash or claims to cashRevenue is realizable when assets received are convertible into a known amount of cash
Four Types of Revenue TransactionsRevenue from selling products is recognized at the date of sale (date of delivery).Revenue from services is recognized when services are performed and are billable.Revenue from the use of enterprise’s assets by others is recognized as time passes or as the assets are used up.Revenue from disposal of assets (other than inventory) is recognized at the point of sale as gain or loss.
Revenue Recognition Classified by Nature of Transaction
Revenue Recognition at Point of Sale	Revenues from manufacturing and selling are commonly recognized at point of sale	Exceptions:Sales with buyback agreementsSales when right of return exists (high rates that are not reliably estimable)Trade loading/channel stuffing
Revenue Recognition Before Delivery	Revenue may be recognized before delivery under certain circumstancesLong-term construction contracts are a notable example	Two methods available are :The percentage-of-completion method, andThe completed contract method
Percentage-of-CompletionMethodCompleted ContractMethod1)  Terms of contract must     be certain, enforceable2) Certainty of performance     by both parties3) Estimates of completion    can be made reliably1) To be used only when      the percentage method is      inapplicable [uncertain]2) For short-term contractsRevenue Recognition Before DeliveryLong-Term ConstructionAccounting Methods

Revenue Recognition After Delivery	Revenue recognition is deferred when collection of sales price is not reasonably assured and no reliable estimates can be made	The two methods that are used are:the installment sales methodthe cost recovery method	If cash is received prior to delivery, the method used is the deposit method
The Installment Sales MethodThis method emphasizes income recognition in periods of collection rather than at point of saleTitle does not pass to the buyer until all cash payments have been made to the sellerBoth sales and cost of sales are deferred to the periods of collectionOther expenses, selling and administrative, are not deferred
The Cost Recovery MethodSeller recognizes no profit until cash payments by buyer exceed seller’s cost of merchandise.
After recovering all costs, seller includes additional cash collections in income.
This method is to be used where there is no reasonable basis for estimating collectibility as in franchises and real estate.
