Complete the following two examples.
Collectability threshold:
Assessment based on goods or services to be transferred. Company C contracts with Customer D to sell 1,000 units for a fixed price of 1 million. D has a poor payment history and often seeks price adjustments after receiving orders and so C assesses that it is probable that it will collect only 70% of the amounts due under the contract. Based on its assessment of the facts and circumstances, C expects to provide an implicit price concession and accept 70% of the fixed price from D. Is the collectability probable? Explain in 2 sentences or less
2. Significant financing component: Change in expected completion date.
Company K enters into a contract with Customer C to construct and deliver a piece of equipment. K determines that the contract contains a single performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time when the equipment is delivered to C. Construction is expected to take two years. K and C agree consideration of 80, which is payable and paid on the date the contract is signed. At contract inception, K considers the terms of the sale and determines that the contract includes a significant financing component because: – there is a significant period between payment and delivery of the asset; – the asset is regularly sold at a higher price; and – there is no evidence to suggest the advance is for another reason. K determines the discount rate, based on its credit characteristics, to be 12%. Therefore, to reflect the financing that it is receiving from the advance payment, K recognises interest expense of 20 in the construction period and revenue of 100 (80 × 1.122) on the delivery date. After Year 1, K determines that the construction will take three rather than two years. Should K record a revised transaction price and date? Answer each question (price and date) with a one-sentence explanation for each.
