Chapter 6 Flashcards
Revenue Recognition
Revenue
Inflows of assets or settlements of liabilities (or a combination of both) from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or other activities that constitute the entity’s ongoing major or central operations
Performance Obligation
Promises to transfer goods and services to a customer; they are satisfied when the seller transfers control of goods or services to the customer
Distinct Goods/Services
A good or service is distinct if it is both capable of being distinct and separately identifiable from other goods or services in the contract. It is capable of being distinct if the customer could use the good or service on its own or in combination with other goods and services it could obtain elsewhere. It is separately identifiable if the good or service is distinct in the context of the contract because it is not highly interrelated with other goods and services in the contract. Distinct goods and services are accounted for as separate performance obligations.
Transaction Price
The amount the seller expects to be entitled to receive from the customer in exchange for providing goods and services
Stand-Alone Selling Price
The amount at which the good or service is sold separately under similar circumstances
Contract
An agreement that creates legally enforceable rights and obligations; contracts can be explicit or implicit
Prepayments
The cash flow precedes either expense or revenue recognition
Quality-Assurance Warranties
Obligation by the seller to make repairs or replace products that are later demonstrated to be defective for some period of time after the salem
Extended Warranty
Additional, extended service that covers new problems arising after the buyer takes control of the product
