Revenue Recognition
18 – 7
TRUE-FALSE—Conceptual
1. The new revenue recognition standard adopts a liability approach as the basis for revenue
recognition.
2. Revenue is recognized in the accounting period when the performance obligation is
satisfied.
3. The first step in the revenue recognition process is to identify the separate performance
obligations in the contract.
4. Revenue from a contract with a customer cannot be recognized until a contract exists.
5. When a contract modification is treated as a separate performance obligation or
prospectively, the same amount of revenue is recognized before and after the modification.
6. If the performance obligation is not highly dependent on, or interrelated with, other
promises in the contract, then each performance obligation should be accounted for
separately.
7. A performance obligation is a written guarantee in a contract to provide a product or
service to a customer.
8. Companies use the expected value, a probability-weighted amount to estimate variable
consideration.
9. When a sales transaction involves a significant financing component, the fair value is
determined either by measuring the consideration received or by discounting the payment
using an imputed interest rate.
10. Companies rarely have to allocate the transaction price to more than one performance
obligation in a contract.
11. When a company sells a bundle of goods at a discount, the discount should be allocated to
the product that caused the discount and not to the entire bundle.
12. A company recognizes revenue from a performance obligation over time by measuring the
progress toward completion.
13. A company can only satisfy its performance obligations at a point in time.
Test Bank for Intermediate Accounting, Seventeenth Edition
18 – 8
14. When a company sells a product but gives the buyer the right to return it, revenue should
not be recognized until the sale is collected.
15. Warranties that the product meets agreed-upon specifications in the contract at the time
the product is sold are referred to as assurance-type warranties.
16. A contract liability is a company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for
which the company has received consideration from the customer.
*17. The most popular input measure used to determine the progress toward completion in
long-term contracts is the cost-to-cost basis.
*18. If the difference between the Construction in Process and the Billings on Construction in
Process account balances is a debit, the difference is reported as a current asset.
*19. The Construction in Process account includes only construction costs under the
percentage-of-completion method.
*20. Under the completed-contract method, companies recognize costs only when the contract
is completed.
*21. The principal advantage of the completed-contract method is that reported revenue reflects
final results rather than estimates.
*22. Companies must recognize the entire expected loss on an unprofitable contract in the
current period under the percentage–of-completion method but not the completed-contract
method.
*23. A loss in the current period on a profitable contract must be recognized under both the
percentage-of-completion and completed-contract method.
*24. Neither the Billings account balance nor the Construction in Process account balance can
exceed the long-term contract price.
*25. The provision for a loss on an unprofitable contract may be combined with the Construction
in Process account balance under percentage-of-completion but not completed-contract.
