A

Yes little one. You have a company right, the company gets into contract and you earn commission of XXX, and printing fees of YYY to get the system ready for the contract.
Only the commission fees of XXX are considered incremental assets because you expect to re-coop that amount through the service being provided. BUT the YYY amount is goin to be expensed because its a cost of the sale of the contract.

So youre a merchant right, if you cannot reasonably estimate the amount of returns when you sell the shit, when can you recognize the revenue

if you cant estimate how much will be returned, then what you gotta do, is fuck shit up, and wait to recognize until the return window is over.
