On January 1, 2019, Piper Company entered into an agreement with Save-Mart to sell its most popular product, the gadget. The contract stipulates that the price per unit will decrease as Save-Mart purchases higher volumes of the gadget, as follows: The contract states that Save-Mart pays Piper the unit price based on the current sales volume. Once a volume threshold is reached, the price is retroactively reduced to the applicable price per unit. Based on its past experience with similar contracts, Piper believes that the total sales volume for the year will be 1,800 units and uses the most likely amount approach to estimate variable consideration. In addition, Piper concludes it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur once the uncertainty surrounding the variable consideration is resolved. Required: 1. Determine the transaction price per unit that Piper should use to record revenue. 2. Assume that Save-Mart purchases 800 units in the first quarter of 2019 and 900 units in the second quarter of 2019. Prepare Pipers journal entries to record the sales in the first and second quarters. 3. Given the higher than expected sales volume in the first half of the year, Piper increases its estimate of the sales volume to 2,800 units. Prepare the journal entry to record this change in estimate.
Consider each of the following scenarios: a. A seller orally agrees with one of its best customers to deliver goods in exchange for 10,000. While the sellers practice is to obtain a written sales agreement, the seller delivered these goods to the customer without a written agreement due to the customers urgent need. b. A seller agrees to provide accounting services to a customer for the next year in exchange for 40,000. While the two parties are negotiating the terms of the agreement and the specific services to be performed, the seller begins to perform some services as a gesture of good faith. c. A seller has a written agreement to deliver goods to a customer for 50 per unit. The price will drop to 45 per unit if the customer purchases more than 2,000 units per month. d. A seller had a written agreement and provided custodial services to a customer for 2,000 per month in a previous year. The contract expired on December 31, 2019. During negotiations for a new contract in January 2020, custodial services were provided at the previous monthly rate and paid for by the buyer. The seller and the customer agree to a new contract on February 1, 2020. The seller is concerned whether a contract existed in January 2020 and whether revenue can be recognized. Required: 1. Determine if a contract exists for each of the scenarios. 2. If it is determined that a contract exists but the seller believes it is probable that it will not collect the expected consideration, how does this affect the sellers ability to recognize revenue?

On February 1, 2020, the telecommunications company sold cellular phones and unlimited calls service to Customer A on a 24 month contract. Customer A pays CU30 per month for network and telephone servicesmobile 'free'. The Company sells Customer B the same cellular telephone for CU 150 and the same network services for CU 25 per month.
