About the module

Revenue is usually the biggest number in a set of financial statements and so it makes sense that there are strict recognition criteria.

Aspects of the approach to revenue recognition in the Financial Reporting Council’s accounting standards have seen a significant amount of change, whilst others remain the same.

Examine how to apply the new and comprehensive five-step model approach to revenue recognition for the first time, and explore some common problems experienced when accounting for agent and principal relationships, deferred payments and exchanges of goods or services.
