Target Corporation prepares its financial statements according
to U.S. GAAP. Target's financial statements and disclosure notes
for the year ended February 3, 2018, are - This material also is
available under the Investor Relations link at the company's
website.
1. On what line of Target's income statement is revenue reported?
What was the amount of revenue Target reported for the fiscal year
ended February 3, 2018? 2. Disclosure Note 2 indicates that Target
generally records revenue in retail stores at the point of sale.
Does that suggest that Target generally records revenue at a point
in time or over a period of time? Explain. 3. Disclosure Note 2
indicates that customers ("guests") can return some merchandise
within 90 days of purchase and can return other merchandise within
a year of purchase. How is Target's revenue and net income affected
by returns, given that it does not know at the time a sale is made
which items will be returned? 4. Disclosure Note 2 indicates that
"Commissions earned on sales generated by leased departments are
included within sales and were $44 million ... in 2017." Do you
think it likely that Target is accounting for those sales as a
principal or an agent? Explain.
5. Disclosure Note 2 discusses Target's accounting for gift card
sales. Does Target recognize revenue when it sells a gift card to a
customer? If not, when does it recognize revenue? Explain. 6.
Disclosure Note 4 discussed how Target accounts for consideration
