Question:

HeavyEQ produces large conveyor belt systems for heavy manufacturing. HeavyEQ signs a $2 million fixed-price contract under which it makes three promises:

  • Install a conveyor belt system: fair value $1.6 million
  • Service the system over a five-year period: fair value $0.6 million
  • Provide a warranty assuring that the conveyer belt meets the contract specification at the time of sale: fair value $0.2 million


REQUIRED

a. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations.
b. Reallocate the transaction price under the notion that HeavyEQ has no reasonable basis for determining the fair value of the servicing because the conveyor system is of such a unique nature that the servicing activities are highly variable and uncertain.
