B has an absolute advantage in the production of both procedures however, B has a comparative advantage in producing Item X 50 100, or 50% of the A cost compared with 150 200, or 75% of the A cost for Item Y)_ A has a comparative advantage in producing Item Y 200 150. or 133% of the B cost, versus 100 50, or 200% for Item X).

  • A. US $100.000
  • B. US $110.01,0
  • C. US $120.000
  • D. US $0

Answer: D

Explanation:
Recognition of an element of financial statements income, which includes revenue and gains) requires that two criteria be met. It must be probable that any future economic benefit associated with the item will flow to or from the entity, and the cost or value of the item must be measurable with reliability. The usual procedures for income recognition. e.g., that income be earned, reflect these criteria. Thus, income is recognized when an increase in future economic benefits is associated with an increase in an asset or a decrease in a liability. However, the entity has not substantially completed what it must do to be entitled to the benefits represented by the advance payment, and the receipt of future economic benefits is not sufficiently certain to merit income recognition.
Accordingly, a liability should be recognized because the entity has a current obligation arising from a past event that will require an outflow of economic benefits, that is, to deliver the software or to refund the customer's money. Thus, a liability for US $100,000 and revenue of US $0 should be recognized for Year I NOTE: This analysis assumes that the sale of the software is a sale either of goods or of services for which the appropriate conditions have not been met. Under IRS 18, Revenue Recognition, revenue is recognized for a sale of goods when the entity has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership, the entity has neither continuing managerial involvement to a extent associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods, the amount can be reliably measured, it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the entity, and transaction costs can be reliably measured. For a sale of services, revenue is recognized when revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the entity, the stage of completion can be reliably measured, and the costs incurred and the costs to complete can be reliably measured.
