What is the approximate contract consideration allocated to the discount?
GerrinAL sells five machines to VernAL for $500,000 per machine, the list price for the machines is $600,000. In a separate contract they sell maintenance services on the five machines for the first year. They charge $12,000 per machine for the maintenance, the list price for maintenance on the machine. As an incentive to sign the maintenance contract, GerrinAL gives VernAL a 25% discount on the purchase of machines in the next 75 days. No discounts are granted to other customers and they project there is 41% probability they will use the discount to purchase one machine with a stand-alone selling price of $600,000. What is the approximate contract consideration allocated to the discount?
