108. (CMA adapted, Dec 95 #5) The conceptual framework of accounting theory governs the recognition of
revenue and expenses. Revenue is generally recognized at the point of sale; however, under special
circumstances, bases other than the point of sale are used for the recognition of revenue. Costs are generally
recognized as expenses at the time of product sale; however, there are guidelines for recognizing expenses by
other criteria. Accountants must be familiar with these concepts when determining the earnings of a company.
Required:
a. Explain why the point of sale is generally used as the basis for revenue recognition.
b. Two other acceptable bases for the recognition of revenue are: (a) recognizing revenue when
cash is received; and (b) recognizing revenue periodically during production. For each of these
two alternatives,
1. Discuss the accounting methods used and the rationale for their use.
Give an example of the circumstances when each method should be used.
For each of the following circumstances, explain the rationale for expense recognition.
1. Recognizing costs as expenses at the time of sale.
2. Treating costs as expenses of a period rather than assigning the costs to an asset.
3. Assigning expenses to specific accounting periods on the basis of the systematic and rational
allocation of asset costs.

development transactions, e.g., sales of farm equipment, home furnishings, heavy equipment, franchises, and
