The software contract includes a service fee of $19.95 for up to 500 hours of Internet service each month. The minimum requirement is a one-year contract. The company proposes to immediately recognize 30% of the first-year’s contract as revenue from the sale of software and 70% as Internet services on a monthly basis as fees are collected from the customer. 2.

The contracted date to complete the production was November, and the company met the contract dare. The customer acknowledges the contract and confirms the amount. However, because the factory is not yet complete, it has asked Modis to hold the products in the ware house as a courtesy until its building is complete. 3. Standish Stoneware has developed a new low-end line of baking products that will be sold directly to consumers and to low-end discount retailers. The company had previously sold high-end silverware products to specialty stores and has a track record of returned items for the high-end stores. The new products tend to have more defects, but the defects are not necessarily recognizable ¡n production. For example, they are more likely to crack when first used in baking. The company does not have a history of returns from these products, but because the products are new, it grants each customer the right to return the merchandise for a full refund or replacement within one year of purchase. 4.

The company is so confident that customers will buy the product that it allows this pilot-testing period. Revenue is recognized at the time the product is installed at the customer location, with a small provision made for potential returns. 6.
