Allee Corp evaluates a revenue arrangement to determine proper revenue recognition. The contract is for the construction of 10 speedboats for a contract price of \(400,000. The customer needs the boats in its showrooms by February 1, 2018, for the boat purchase season; the customer provides a bonus payment of \)21,000 if all ships are delivered by the February 1 deadline. The bonus is reduced by $7,000 each week that the boats are delivered after the deadline until no compensation is paid if the ships are provided after February 15, 2018. Allee frequently includes such bonus terms in its contracts and thus has good historical data for estimating the probabilities of completion at different dates. It calculates an equal likelihood (25%) for each delivery outcome. What approach should Allee use to determine the transaction price for this contract? Explain.

Why in franchise arrangements may it be improper to recognize the entire franchise fee as revenue at the date of sale?
