CR – May 2017 – L3 – Q7a – Revenue Recognition (IFRS 15)

Itemize and discuss the five-step model for revenue recognition under IFRS 15.

Megida hopes to obtain contracts from both the private and public sectors following the new government economic initiatives. The company’s revenue had always been accounted for in line with IAS 18, as the company had adopted IFRS. Some directors of Megida understand that with the introduction of IFRS 15: Revenue from Contracts, the way revenue from contracts is recognized may change. In particular, one of them who attended an IFRS training organized by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) heard about IFRS 15 and its five-step model for revenue recognition but did not understand.

CR – May 2023 – L3 – Q4a – Revenue Recognition (IFRS 15)

Discuss the criteria for a contract to fall under IFRS 15 for revenue recognition.

There has been significant divergence in practice over the recognition of revenue, mainly because International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) contain limited guidance in certain areas. The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as a result of its joint project with the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), has issued IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

IFRS 15 sets out a five-step model, which applies to revenue earned from a contract with a customer with limited exceptions, regardless of the type of revenue transaction or the industry. Step one in the five-step model requires the identification of the contract with the customer and is critical for the purpose of applying the standard. The remaining four steps in the standard’s revenue recognition model are irrelevant if the contract does not fall within the scope of IFRS 15.

Required:

Discuss the criteria which must be met for a contract with a customer to fall within the scope of IFRS 15. (10 Marks)

AAA – Nov 2020 – L3 – Q4 – Audit of IT Systems and Data Analytics

Discuss IT controls and the five-step revenue recognition model in a retail environment adapting to online sales.

Holloway Interiors Limited operates a large shop at Garki, Abuja. The company’s year-end is April 30. It sells high-end furniture and provides interior decoration services. Typically, sales begin with a customer signing an invoice prepared by a sales clerk, who then records the sale in the system and prints a receipt in duplicate, one for the customer and one for filing. The customer either takes the product or arranges for delivery by the company.

Due to the COVID-19 lockdown in Abuja, Holloway Interiors closed its physical showroom, shifted all sales online, and allowed delivery after payment or on a cash-on-delivery basis. Delivery may take up to a week after the online sale is initiated.
