Antonio’s Car Services provides maintenance services for
motorized vehicles. In March 2018, Rick placed an order for a new
set of tires for $350. When a customer purchases goods or services
in excess of $300, Antonio’s gives the customer a 25% discount
coupon for future purchases made in the next three months.
Antonio’s estimates that approximately 80% of customers utilize the
coupon and that on average those customers will purchase goods or
services that typically sell for $75.
Required:
(a) How many performance obligations are in Rick’s
contract?
(b) Prepare a journal entry to record revenue for
this transaction, assuming that Antonio’s uses the residual method
to estimate the stand-alone selling price of new tires sold without
the discount coupon.
