Chapter 6, Problem 6.10E

Variable consideration—most likely amount; change in estimate

• LO5–3, LO5–6

Rocky Guide Service provides guided 1–5 day hiking tours throughout the Rocky Mountains. Wilderness Tours hires Rocky to lead various tours that Wilderness sells. Rocky receives $1,000 per tour day, and shortly after the end of each month Rocky learns whether it will receive a $100 bonus per tour day it guided during the previous month if its service during that month received an average evaluation of “excellent” by Wilderness customers. The $1,000 per day and any bonus due are paid in one lump payment shortly after the end of each month.

  • On July 1, based on prior experience, Rocky estimated there is a 30% chance it will earn the bonus for July tours. It guided a total of 10 days from July 1–July 15.
  • On July 16, based on Rocky’s view that it had provided excellent service during the first part of the month, Rocky revised its estimate to an 80% chance it would earn the bonus for July tours. Rocky also guided customers for 15 days from July 16–July 31.
  • On August 5 Rocky learned it did not receive an average evaluation of “excellent” for its July tours, so it would not receive any bonus for July, and received all payment due for the July tours.

Rocky bases estimates of variable consideration on the most likely amount it expects to receive.

Required:

1. Prepare Rocky’s July 15 journal entry to record revenue for tours given from July 1–July 15.

2. Prepare Rocky’s July 31 journal entry to record revenue for tours given from July 16–July 31.

3. Prepare Rocky’s August 5 journal entry to record any necessary adjustments to revenue and receipt of payment from Wilderness.

6. Problem 11-06 (New-Project Analysis) eBook New-Project Analysis Problem Walk-Through The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $1,050,000, and it would cost another $20,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $613,000. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $19,000. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $400,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 25%. (Ignore the half-year convention for the straight-line method.) Cash outflows, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations.
