Course Description
For many organizations, the single most critical accounting topic is the recognition of revenue–when can it be recognized and how much do you recognize? If you don’t recognize the correct amount of revenue, it may be necessary to engage in adjustments at a later date, which can cause readers to doubt the veracity of your financial statements. In Revenue Recognition, we present the recognition principles needed to account for contracts with customers, using summarizations of the original accounting standards and many explanatory examples. A number of peripheral issues are also covered, including the treatment of variable consideration, noncash consideration, price discounts, subsequent price changes, consignments, licensing, repurchase agreements, disclosures, and much more.
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
Chapter 1
- Identify the evaluation criteria for a contract, the components of the transaction price, and when a contract modification triggers treatment as a new contract
Chapter 2
- Recognize the accounting treatment pertaining to customer acceptance clauses, rights to acquire additional goods, donations, asset repurchases, and breakage
Chapter 3
- Recognize the situations under which contract liabilities occur, and when disaggregation is used
Chapter 4
- Specify the methods used to control which third parties are recognized as customers and to control the use of justification documents for standalone pricing
