| teddajr | Future revenue recognition prior to completion can be achieved with availability of reliable estimates of expected future costs. |
| kutta2102 | I'm slightly confused. How can we recognize revenue when the product is in the "production" stage? Revenue cannot be recognized until the product is actually delivered to the customer. |
| ppjar | yes you can still recognize revenue even if the project is not complete: think about a huge project that takes years to complete. You would not recognize the revenue after all these years... |
| Drzewes | percentage of completion method, installment sales method... |
| johntan1979 | What about the cost recovery method? Cost cannot be reasonably determined. So the statement above is false, since under this method, sales are recognized when cash is received, but no gross profit is recognized until all of the costs of goods sold are collected. That is, it recognizes profit only when cash collections exceed the total cost of the product sold. |
| schweitzdm | johntan1979 has a point. This question is confusing. |
| kingirm | Reliable or reasonable? |
