On January 1, 2016, Elite Advertising was contracted to run a marketing campaign for Pharm King's new dieting pills. In addition

to getting a base fee of $150,000 for the 3-year campaign, Elite also may get an additional 5% of the base fee as a bonus if a targeted sales level is reached at the end of three years. Elite currently lacks sufficient information to make an estimate of the likelihood of the expected bonus, with the marketing director indicating that "If you forced me to make an estimate, I'd say we have a 50/50 chance. But don't quote me on that - it's really too early to tell." Elite concludes this contract qualifies for revenue recognition over time, and estimates variable consideration using the most likely amount. How much revenue should Elite recognize as of December 31, 2016? A. $50,000B. $51,250C. $52,500D. $57,500

Answer:

A. $50,000

Explanation:

150,000 for a 3 year compaing  = 50,000 per year

<u>The contract has just started </u>and the information available doesn't meet the criteria.

We must remember that <u>accounting has a principle of conservatism</u> regarding revenues. Accrue revenue without proper grounds is not correct. We should recognize the 1/3 of the base fee which is earned and matched the accounting cycle.

In the long run equilibrium, a monopolistic competitor will produce to the point at which A) actual average total costs are at t
Artemon [7]

Monopolistic competition is the economic market model with many sellers selling similar, but not identical, products. The demand curve of monopolistic competition is elastic because although the firms are selling differentiated products, many are still close substitutes, so if one firm raises its price too high, many of its customers will switch to products made by other firms. This elasticity of demand makes it similar to pure competition where elasticity is perfect. Demand is not perfectly elastic because a monopolistic competitor has fewer rivals then would be the case for perfect competition, and because the products are differentiated to some degree, so they are not perfect substitutes.

Monopolistic competition has a downward sloping demand curve. Thus, just as for a pure monopoly, its marginal revenue will always be less than the market price, because it can only increase demand by lowering prices, but by doing so, it must lower the prices of all units of its product. Hence, monopolistically competitive firms maximize profits or minimize losses by producing that quantity where marginal revenue equals marginal cost, both over the short run and the long run.
