On July 15, 2021, Ortiz & Co. signed a contract to provide
EverFresh Bakery with an ingredient-weighing system for a price of
$82,800. The system included finely tuned scales that fit into
EverFresh's automated assembly line, Ortiz's proprietary software
modified to allow the weighing system to function in EverFresh's
automated system, and a one-year contract to calibrate the
equipment and software on an as-needed basis. (Ortiz competes with
other vendors who offer ongoing calibration contracts for Ortiz's
systems.) If Ortiz was to provide these goods or services
separately, it would charge $54,000 for the scales, $10,000 for the
software, and $36,000 for the calibration contract. Ortiz delivered
and installed the equipment and software on August 1, 2021, and the
calibration service commenced on that date.
Assume that the scales, software and calibration service are viewed
as one performance obligation. How much revenue will Ortiz
recognize in 2021 for this contract?
It is assumed that Dec 31 would be the year end for Oriz.
The Revenue recognised will be $79,000. revenue will be recognised when the performance obligation is satisfied. For the Scales and Software, these were satisfied on 1st Aug. The callibration service will span over a pear and hence the revenue will also be distributed over a year period.
