...Products Corporation (CCPC) is a public company with a calendar yearend. CCPC manufactures detergent that is ultimately purchased (and used) by consumers. The supply chain consists of the following: • _ CCPC sells its detergent to a wholesaler; • _ The wholesaler sells the detergent to a retailer; and • _ The retailer sells the detergent to a consumer. CCPC launches a new detergent, Fresh & Bright, on September 1, 2009. In connection with this launch, CCPC developed a comprehensive marketing campaign. Part of that campaign involves releasing (‘‘dropping’’) approximately 500,000 coupons in Sunday newspapers in locales in which Fresh & Bright will be sold. When a consumer redeems the coupon upon purchasing a bottle of Fresh & Bright from a retailer, the price charged to the consumer is reduced by $2. The retailer at which the coupon is redeemed sends the coupon to a clearinghouse. CCPC reimburses the retailer for the discount provided to the customer. CCPC discontinues the coupons for its new detergent on October 1, 2009. The coupons expire on October 1, 2010. CCPC has not offered coupons on detergent before, nor have they offered coupons with a one-year expiration period. They have, however, offered coupons with a six-month expiration date on other products. Those coupons had a 1.5 percent redemption rate. CCPC estimates that approximately 2 percent of the detergent coupons will be redeemed by customers prior to the expiration date. However, CCPC does not have any data...

While these topics are important, there are literally hundreds of revenue-generating transactions that are not covered in the traditional financial accounting sequence. These are their stories (for any Law and Order fans): Case One: Facts Consumer Cleaning Products Corporation (CCPC) is a public company with a calendar yearend. CCPC manufactures detergent that is ultimately purchased (and used) by consumers. The supply chain consists of the following: * CCPC sells its detergent to a wholesaler; * The wholesaler sells the detergent to a retailer; and * The retailer sells the detergent to a consumer.

...Cleaning Products Corporation (CCPC) had recognized revenue for over $2,000,000 by December 31, 2009. CCPC began releasing coupons concurrently with the detergent’s launch date of December 1, 2009; therefore, requirement (a) is the later of the two dates. All of the estimated coupon redemption of $20,000 should be expensed on December 31, 2009 which would fall within CCPC’s 2009 Income Statement. 2) According to ASC 605-50-25-4, “A vendor shall recognize a liability… based on the estimated amount of refunds or rebates that will be claimed by customers. However, if the amount of future rebates or refunds cannot be reasonably and reliably estimated, a liability (or deferred revenue) shall be recognized for the maximum potential amount of the refund or rebate.” The codification then states factors that make estimates unreliable including: “a. Relatively long periods in which a particular rebate or refund may be claimed b. The absence of historical experience with similar types of sales incentive programs with similar products or the inability to apply such experience because of changing circumstances c. The absence of a large volume of relatively homogeneous transactions.” The fact that CCPC’s sales incentive is for a relatively long period of time (part a) and that CCPC has not had a large volume of similar transactions (part c) it seems as though CCPC cannot reasonably and reliably estimate coupon redemption. In this scenario CCPC would have to create a...

Corporate Attribution Rules - Chapter 13 (13390); S. 74.4 - see problems contained in these notes Recommended Questions: Chapter 13, Multiple Choice Questions 6 and 7 and Exercises 8 and 10 “$800,000” Lifetime Capital Gains Exemption (C.G.E.) The March 21, 2013 federal budget has increased the C.G.E. to $800,000 starting in 2014. This amount, i.e., $800,000, will be indexed to inflation, i.e., it will be further increased, in 2015 and thereafter based on the rate of inflation. In 2015 the C.G.E. is $813,600. The availability of the QSBC capital gains exemption is an advantage of incorporating a small business (a CCPC earning active business income in Canada). This same exemption, with a higher $1M exemption for dispositions on or after April 21, 2015, is also available for capital gains on certain farming and fishing assets. This course will not focus on family farms or fishing properties. Note that an $800,000 capital gains exemption is really a $400,000 taxable capital gains deduction because only ½ of a capital gain is included in income. Each individual has a lifetime total $813,600 (in 2015) capital gains exemption (C.G.E.). Any previously utilized C.G.E.’s will reduce the balance remaining. The actual amount in a given year that an individual can claim as a C.G.E. is a “least of” formula. This “least...

...ISSUES IN ACCOUNTING EDUCATION Vol. 26, No. 3 2011 pp. 609–618 American Accounting Association DOI: 10.2308/iace-50029 A Series of Revenue Recognition Research Cases Using the Codification R. Mark Alford, Teresa M. DiMattia, Nancy T. Hill, and Kevin T. Stevens ABSTRACT: This series of four short cases is designed to help students develop the skills to research the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification and other authoritative literature. It also is designed to help improve students’ ability to analyze and critique the complex issues that often surround the accounting for revenue recognition. The case scenarios describe transactions in which students must decide whether, when, and how much revenue to recognize. The issues analyzed involve bill-and-hold, multiple-element arrangements, gross versus net revenue reporting, and sales incentives. The cases are also designed to improve teamwork and communication skills. The sequence of cases is intended for use in an intermediate accounting class that covers revenue recognition, or in a capstone class that emphasizes critical thinking and research skills. Keywords: revenue; recognition; codification; research. INTRODUCTION evenue recognition is one of the top causes for financial statement restatements (Whitehouse 2010). In addition, revenue recognition is an area commonly questioned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) staff in their review of public filings and resultant comment...
