Question

Transcribed Image Text:In January 2024, Continental Fund Services, Incorporated, enters into a one-year contract with a client to provide investment advisory
services. The company will receive a management fee, prepaid at the beginning of the contract, that is calculated as 1.5% of the
client's $310 million total assets being managed. In addition, the contract specifies that Continental will receive a performance bonus
of 15% of any returns in excess of the return on the Dow Jones Industrial Average market index. Continental estimates that it will earn a
$1.5 million performance bonus, but is very uncertain of that estimate, given that the bonus depends on a highly volatile stock market.
On what transaction price should Continental base revenue recognition?
Note: Enter your answer in millions rounded to 2 decimal places (i.e., 5,500,000 should be entered as 5.50).
