Identify the applicable accounting convention for the following business scenario and explain your choice

The Morrison Company receives much of its revenue from those customers who buy or rent furniture and appliances on the installment plan. Because the company uses an accrual-based accounting system, revenue is recognized at the point of sale, even though cash comes in on a monthly basis from customers. Lately, the company's accountant is questioning the use of the accrual basis for recognizing revenue, because several customers have defaulted on their contracts, causing problems in the accounting system.

The Red Hen company is launching its new food for sale in supermarkets throughout Michigan. The sales department is convinced that its spicy chicken soup will be a great success. The marketing department is considering an intensive advertising campaign. The advertising campaign will cost $2,000,000 and if successful produce $9,600,000 in added revenue. If the campaign is less successful (25% chance), the added revenue is estimated at only $3,600,000. If no advertising is used, the revenue is estimated at $7,000,000 with probability 0.7 if customers are receptive and $3,000,000 with probability 0.3 if they are not.

Question- Should Red Hen invest in an intensive advertising campaign?
