Exercise 5: The Revenue Recognition Principle
Scenario: XYZ Corporation signed a contract with a customer on January 1, 20X1, to deliver goods or services over a period of 12 months. The total contract value is $120,000, and the customer agrees to pay $10,000 per month.
Requirements:
- Calculate the total revenue recognized at the end of each month using the percentage of completion method.
- Discuss how the revenue recognition principle is applied in this scenario.
Solution:
- Calculation:
- At the end of each month, calculate the percentage of completion by dividing the cumulative revenue recognized by the total contract value.
- Multiply the percentage of completion by the total contract value to determine the revenue recognized for that month.
Month Cumulative Revenue Recognized Percentage of Completion Revenue Recognized 1 $10,000 8.33% $10,000 2 $20,000 16.67% $10,000 … … … … 12 $120,000 100% $10,000 - Discussion:
- The revenue recognition principle states that revenue should be recognized when it is earned and realizable. In this scenario, revenue is recognized as the company fulfills its performance obligations over time, reflecting the transfer of control to the customer.
- The percentage of completion method is applied to recognize revenue proportionally as the company progresses in fulfilling its obligations.
Exercise 6: The Matching Principle
Scenario: ABC Corporation purchased office supplies on January 1, 20X2, for $5,000. The supplies are expected to last for the entire year.
Requirements:
- Prepare journal entries for the purchase of office supplies.
- Apply the matching principle and adjust the books at the end of the year to reflect the appropriate expense.
Solution:
- Journal Entries:
- January 1, 20X2:
- Debit: Office Supplies Expense $5,000
- Credit: Cash or Accounts Payable $5,000
- January 1, 20X2:
- Adjustment at the end of the year:
- December 31, 20X2:
- Debit: Office Supplies Expense $5,000
- Credit: Prepaid Expenses $5,000
- Explanation: The matching principle requires expenses to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred. By adjusting the books at the end of the year, we allocate the cost of office supplies to the periods in which they are used, reflecting the true expense for the year.
- December 31, 20X2:
