Q1Domain Verified
A software company enters into a contract with a client to provide software licenses, installation services, and one year of technical support. The standalone selling prices are known for each component. The contract includes a clause for a potential performance bonus if certain uptime metrics are met, which the company estimates has a 70% probability of being achieved. According to ASC 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers), how should the company recognize revenue for this contract?
Allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices, including the estimated variable consideration (bonus) in the transaction price if it's highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
Allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices and recognize revenue as each obligation is satisfied, treating the bonus as contingent revenue when earned.
Recognize revenue for the software license upon delivery, deferring installation and support revenue, and exclude the bonus from the transaction price until certainty is 100%.
Recognize all revenue upfront upon software delivery, as it's the primary product.
Q2Domain Verified
A manufacturing firm leases specialized machinery under a 5-year non-cancelable contract. The fair value of the machinery is $1,000,000, and the present value of the lease payments is $950,000. The lease term represents 80% of the machinery's economic life, and ownership does not transfer at the end of the lease. The lease does not contain a purchase option. Under IFRS 16 (Leases), how should the lessee classify and account for this lease, and what is its primary impact on the balance sheet?
Classify as a finance lease, recognizing a Right-of-Use (ROU) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet, with subsequent depreciation of the ROU asset and interest expense on the lease liability.
Classify as a finance lease, recognizing the fair value of the machinery as an asset and a corresponding liability, then depreciating the asset.
Classify as an operating lease but recognize a lease liability for the present value of payments, expensing only the interest portion.
Classify as an operating lease, recognizing lease payments as expense annually, with no significant impact on the balance sheet beyond current liabilities for short-term payments.
