John Lunde, the president of Gladden Manufacturing, is eligible for a bonus if net income increases by 15 percent. He has a simple plan designed to guarantee that he gets his bonus. He knows that Samuel Adams negotiated a large order on December 20, 2013. The goods will not be shipped until the middle of January but since they are custom-manufactured and cannot be returned once they're ordered, he believes the revenue should be recognized in December. This will give him the revenue needed so that net income increases by 15 percent. Explaining the situation to the controller, Beth Duncan, he says, "The accounting rules require a company to recognize revenue when the order has been received, which is in 2013, so I get my bonus. I have earned it and I do not want to lose it just because the goods were not shipped until 2014." 4.
