Explain why recognizing revenue has no affect on the underlying economic activity of the entity.

On March 11, 2018, Adam Electronics (AE) entered into a contract to provide 100 point of sale terminals to an Ontario coffee chain. AE normally charges $1,800 per terminal. As part of the agreement, AE will provide two years of on-site technical support. A two-year contract with another similar company would cost $400 per terminal. AE has never done business with this coffee chain in the past, however, the Coffee chain has an excellent credit rating.

50 terminals were delivered to the coffee shops in May 2018, and 50 were delivered in June of 2018. There installation process was fairly straight forward, so AE did not charge for this separately. The total contract was $200,000.
