Revenue Recognition Topics 606 and 958
Revenue Recognition vs Contributions Topic 606 Applies to exchange transactions that occur through contracts with customers Topic 958 Applies to non-exchange transactions (contributions)
Why Are These Standards So Important? The amount and timing of revenues recognized will be different Disclosure requirements are more extensive Clarifies exchange transactions versus contributions Systems and processes will need to be updated to ensure they properly capture information that affects revenues Time and effort to implement the standard is fairly substantial
General Application Criteria vs Steps Topic 606 Represents a drastic change in approach Topic 605 • Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104 establishes the “four criteria” to recognize revenue • Persuasive evidence of an arrangement • Delivery and performance • Fixed or determinable sales price • Collectability is reasonably assured
Topic 606 - Scoping • Leases • Financial Instruments • Topic 310, Receivables • Topic 320, Investments- Debt and Equity Securities • Topic 323, Investments- Equity Method and Joint Ventures • Topic 325, Investments- Other • Topic 405, Liabilities • Topic 470, Debt • Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging • Topic 825, Financial Instruments • Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing • Guarantees • Insurance contracts • Certain nonmonetary exchanges • Contracts not with customers Investment Income & Contributions are out of scope • The following are scoped out and retain their existing industry guidance:
Topic 606 - Scoping • Memberships • Subscriptions • Products and services • Sponsorships • Tuition and impact of scholarship and rights to withdraw with full refunds • Student housing • Royalty agreements • Licensing • Federal and state grants and contracts • Advertising • Conferences and seminars The following items may be accounted for under Topic 606:
Example #1 – Membership Dues • NFP Organization has annual dues of $500. • Members receive the following benefits from their membership: • Right to participate in monthly activities (membership services): • Advocacy efforts • Educational opportunities • Information about industry trends • Quarterly professional journal • Assume the standalone selling price: • $400 for membership services • $100 for the quarterly journal
Example #1 – Membership Dues • Step #1 – Identify the Contract • Contract between NFP and the Member for Dues and Subscription • Step #2 – Identify the Performance Obligations in the Contract • Obligation #1 – Membership Services • Obligation #2 – Quarterly Journal • Step #3 – Determine the Transaction Price • The Transaction Price for the bundle is $500
Example #1 – Membership Dues • Step #4 – Allocate the Transaction Price to the Performance Obligations in the Contract based on relative selling price • Obligation #1 – Membership Services - $400 • Obligation #2 – Quarterly Journal - $100 • Step #5 – Recognize Revenue when (or as) each Performance Obligation is Satisfied • Obligation #1 – Membership Services – over 12 months • Obligation #2 – Quarterly Journal – each quarter (mailing)
Example #2 – Museum Dues • A museum provides an annual individual membership for $75. • Designated benefits include access to the museum research center and exhibits, for which the museum believes the fair value is $75. • This year, to generate new memberships, the museum launched a membership drive with two promotional benefits. An individual membership will also include: •One free admission to the museum (normally priced at $20). •A $20 discount on any purchase of $100 or more in the museum gift shop. The museum believes it 50% likely that the member will make a purchase of at least $100.
Example #2 – Museum Dues • Step #1 – Identify the Contract • Contract between NFP and the Member related to membership benefits and the promotional items • Step #2 – Identify the Performance Obligations in the Contract • Obligation #1 – Membership Services • Obligation #2 – One Free Museum Admission • Obligation #3 – Gift Shop Discount • Step #3 – Determine the Transaction Price • The Transaction Price for the bundle is $75
Example #2 – Museum Dues • Step #4 – Allocate the Transaction Price to the Performance Obligations in the Contract • The museum previously determined that member benefits have standalone selling price of $75. • One free admission has a standalone selling price of $20. • The gift shop discount’s estimated stand-alone selling price is $10 ($20 discount X 50% probability that it will be used). • Member benefits ($75/105) x $75 = $54 • Free admission ($20/105) x $75 = $14 • Gift shop discount ($10/105) x $75 = $7
Example #2 – Museum Dues • Step #5 – Recognize Revenue when (or as) each Performance Obligation is Satisfied • Obligation #1 – Membership Services – over 12 months • Obligation #2 – One Free Museum Admission – when utilized • Obligation #3 – Gift Shop Discount – when utilized

Example #3: Grant from Local Government • NFP Areceives funding from the local government to perform a research study on the benefits of changing the current school curriculum. • The agreement requires NFP A to: • Plan the study • Perform the research • Summarize and submit the research to the local government • The local government retains all rights to the study.
Example #3: Conclusion • NFP A concludes this is an exchange (reciprocal) transaction so it is accounted for under 606. • Explanation: • Commensurate value is exchanged between the two parties • The local government retains the rights to the study
Example #4: Grant from Federal Government • NFP A is awarded a grant from the federal government. • The agreement requires NFP A to: • Follow the rules and regulations established by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) • Incur certain expenses (costs) in compliance with rules and regulations established by the OMB and the federal awarding agency • Obtain an annual audit in accordance with OMB guidelines • Submit a summary of program outcomes to the federal government • Any unused assets are forfeited, and any disallowed cost that have been drawn down by NFP A are required to be refunded • NFP A retains the rights to all program outcomes.
Example #4: Conclusion • NFP A concludes this is a nonexchange transaction (nonreciprocal) • Explanation: • Commensurate value is not being exchanged between the two parties • NFP A retains all the rights to the program outcomes and received the primary benefit of the programs • The federal government’s benefit is considered indirect because the program outcomes serve the general public
Example #4 (expanded): Conclusion • NFP A determines that it should account for this grant as conditional. • Explanation: • Barrier - The grant agreement limits NFP A’s discretion as a result of the specific requirements on how the assets may be spent (qualifying expenses) • There is a right of return and release • The audit requirement alone is not a barrier to entitlement because it is not related to the purpose of the agreement.
Bifurcation – Transactions Partially Covered by 606 • Some transactions have multiple components that consist of both contributions and exchange transaction • Examples may include the following: • membership dues • sponsorship agreements • donor transactions • Organizations will identify and bifurcate the transaction.
Bifurcation – Transactions Partially Covered by 606 • If consideration is = or < normal selling price of the exchange transaction 100% is allocated to the exchange transaction • If consideration is > normal selling price of the exchange transaction but less than the total, allocate 100% of the fair value to the exchange transaction first and the residual to the contribution transaction • If consideration is = or > than the total selling price of the exchange portion and contribution portion then use relative selling price approach to allocate consideration paid
Example #5 – Monthly Newsletter • NFP Organization has annual dues of $150. • Members receive the following benefits from their membership: • Monthly newsletter with a fair value of $60
Example #5 – Monthly Newsletter • Bifurcate the transaction • Topic 606: Newsletter for $60 • Topic 958: Contribution of $90 • Step #1 – Identify the Contract • Contract between NFP and the Member • Step #2 – Identify the Performance Obligations in the Contract • Obligations –Monthly Newsletter • Step #3 – Determine the Transaction Price • The Transaction Price is $60
