In the Month of March, Digby Corporation received orders of 128 units at a price of $15.00 for their product Daze. Digby uses the accrual method of accounting and offers 30 day credit terms. Digby delivers 86 units in March and the balance of 43 units in April. They received payment for 43 units in March, 43 units in April, and 43 units in May. How much revenue is recognized on the March income statement from this order

Answer 1

Answer:

$1,290

Explanation:

The revenue to be recognized in march is dependent on if the revenue recognition criteria was met in march. These criteria are

• the cost of goods delivered or service rendered can be measured reliably
• good/services were delivered/rendered in the month

This is irrespective of whether cash was collected or not under the accrual method.

Given that Digby delivers 86 units in March at a price of $15.00, revenue to be recognized

= 86 * $15

= $1,290
