Answer:

  • <u>$5,750</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

<em>The expected transaction price with variable consideration as the expected value</em> is the calculated as the sum of the products of each price transaction by the corresponding probability.

<u>1. Without bonus for early finishing:</u>

Price transaction:

  • $5,000                    

Probability:

  • 100% - 30% - 60% = 10% = 0.10

Product:

  • $5,000 × 0.10 = $500

<u>2. Finishing 2 weeks early:</u>

Bonus:

  • $5,000 × 30% = $1,500

Price transaction:

  • $5,000 + $1,500 = $6,500

Probability:

  • 30% = 0.30

Product:

  • $6,500 × 0.30 = $1,950

<u>3. Finishing a week early:</u>

Bonus:

  • $5,000 × 10% = $500

Price transaction:

  • $5,000 + $500 = $5,500

Probability:

  • 60% = 0.60

Product:

  • $5,500 × 0.60 = $3,300

<u></u>

<u>4. Expected value of the 3 scenaries:</u>

Sum the products obtained above:

  • $500 + $1,950 + $3,300 = $5,750
