Chapter 18: Question E18-15 (page 1037)

(Allocate Transaction Price) Appliance Center is an experienced home appliance dealer. Appliance Center also offers a number of services for the home appliances that it sells. Assume that Appliance Center sells ovens on a standalone basis. Appliance Center also sells installation services and maintenance services for ovens. However, Appliance Center does not offer installation or maintenance services to customers who buy ovens from other vendors. Pricing for ovens is as follows.

Oven only \( 800

Oven with installation service 850

Oven with maintenance services 975

Oven with installation and maintenance services 1,000

In each instance in which maintenance services are provided, the maintenance service is separately priced within the arrangement at \)175. Additionally, the incremental amount charged by Appliance Center for installation approximates the amount charged by independent third parties. Ovens are sold subject to a general right of return. If a customer purchases an oven with installation and/or maintenance services, in the event Appliance Center does not complete the service satisfactorily, the customer is only entitled to a refund of the portion of the fee that exceeds \(800.

Instructions

(a) Assume that a customer purchases an oven with both installation and maintenance services for \)1,000. Based on its experience, Appliance Center believes that it is probable that the installation of the equipment will be performed satisfactorily to the customer. Assume that the maintenance services are priced separately (i.e., the three components are distinct). Identify the separate performance obligations related to the Appliance Center revenue arrangement.

(b) Indicate the amount of revenue that should be allocated to the oven, the installation, and to the maintenance contract.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Price allocated for oven = $780.48.

Price allocated for installation service = $48.78.

Price allocated for maintenance service = $170.73.

Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Performance Obligations

The word "performance Obligation"refers to the seller's duty to execute the contract's terms and sell or provide services to consumers as promised. It might be stated explicitly, obliquely, or based on industry norms.

02

Separate performance obligations and price allocation

The price of the oven is $800

Installationcharges=PricewithInstallationservice-Priceofoven=$850-$800=$50

Maintenancecharges=Pricewithmaintenanceservice-Priceofoven=$975-$800=$175

Totalprice=Priceofoven+Installationcharges+Maintenancecharges=$800+$50+$175=$1025

Price allocation:

Priceallocationforoven=PriceofovenTotalpricePricepaidbycustomer=$800$1025$1,000=$78048

Allocationtothemaintenance=MaintenancechargesTotalPricePricepaidbycustomer=$175$1025$1,000=$17073

P18-6 (LO3) (Warranty, Customer Loyalty Program) Hale Hardware takes pride as the 鈥渟hop around the corner鈥 that can compete with the big-box home improvement stores by providing good service from knowledgeable sales associates (many of whom are retired, local handymen). Hale has developed the following two revenue arrangements to enhance its relationships with customers and increase its bottom line.

1. Hale sells a specialty portable winch that is popular with many of the local customers for use at their lake homes (putting docks in and out, launching boats, etc.). The Hale winch is a standard manufactured winch that Hale modifies so the winch can be used for a variety of tasks. Hale sold 70 of these winches in 2017 at a total price of \(21,000, with a warranty guarantee that the product was free of any defects. The cost of winches sold is \)16,000. The assurance warranties extend for a 3-year period with an estimated cost of \(2,100. In addition, Hale sold extended warranties related to 20 Hale winches for 2 years beyond the 3-year period for \)400 each.

2. To bolster its already strong customer base, Hale implemented a customer loyalty program that rewards a customer with 1 loyalty point for every \(10 of purchases on a select group of Hale products. Each point is redeemable for a \)1 discount on any purchases of Hale merchandise in the following 2 years. During 2017, customers purchased select group products for \(100,000 (all products are sold to provide a 45% gross profit) and earned 10,000 points redeemable for future purchases. The standalone selling price of the purchased products is \)100,000. Based on prior experience with incentives programs Problems 1045 like this, Hale expects 9,500 points to be redeemed related to these sales (Hale appropriately uses this experience to estimate the value of future consideration related to bonus points).

Instructions

(b) Prepare the journal entries for Hale related to the sales of Hale winches with warranties.

(Determine Transaction Price) Taylor Marina has 300 available slips that rent for $800 per season. Payments must be made in full by the start of the boating season, April 1, 2018. The boating season ends October 31, and the marina has a December 31 year-end. Slips for future seasons may be reserved if paid for by December 31, 2018. Under a new policy, if payment for 2019 season slips is made by December 31, 2018, a 5% discount is allowed. If payment for 2020 season slips is made by December 31, 2018, renters get a 20% discount (this promotion hopefully will provide cash flow for major dock repairs).

On December 31, 2017, all 300 slips for the 2018 season were rented at full price. On December 31, 2018, 200 slips were reserved and paid for the 2019 boating season, and 60 slips were reserved and paid for the 2020 boating season.

Instructions

(a) Prepare the appropriate journal entries for December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2018.

(b) Assume the marina operator is unsophisticated in business. Explain the managerial significance of the above accounting to this person.

P18-7 (LO3) (Customer Loyalty Program) Martz Inc. has a customer loyalty program that rewards a customer with 1 customer loyalty point for every \(10 of purchases. Each point is redeemable for a \)3 discount on any future purchases. On July 2, 2017, customers purchase products for \(300,000 (with a cost of \)171,000) and earn 30,000 points redeemable for future purchases. Martz expects 25,000 points to be redeemed. Martz estimates a standalone selling price of \(2.50 per point (or \)75,000 total) on the basis of the likelihood of redemption. The points provide a material right to customers that they would not receive without entering into a contract. As a result, Martz concludes that the points are a separate performance obligation.

Instructions

Prepare the journal entries to record the sale of the product and related points on July 2, 2017.
