Bradley Nowell works as a purchaser at Louie Dog Industries. He is in charge of
purchasing dog beds from manufacturers. Bradley's mother, seeing an opportunity,
starts a dog bed manufacturing company and quickly receives almost all of Louie
Dog's orders. In order to fill the orders, Bradley's mother buys low-quality beds from

Bria Furniture sells bed frames and mattresses. One of its products is a premium therapeutic bed set
produced by OmniSleep, which comes with a mattress and a bed frame. Bria offers a package
consisting of the mattress, the frame, and on-site installation by its staff. All of these components can
be sold separately, as often done by other vendors, so Bria concludes that these are separate
performance obligations. Bria sells the OmniSleep package for $3,000. The mattress and the frame
are sold separately for $2,000 and $900, respectively. Other vendors in the same area typically
charge $200 for on-site installation. Bria does not sell on-site installation separately. On average, the
prices charged by Bria are 10% higher than those of its competitors. Bria estimates that it incurs about
$100 of compensation and other costs to provide the installation service. The profit margin over cost
is estimated to be approximately 35%.
