Revenue Recognition IFRS15 / ASC 606

Are you finding that trying to comply in an optimal manner and on time – with the new regulation for revenue recognition – IFRS 15/ASC606 (revenue from contracts with customers) – is a challenging task?

It is our experience that most companies who use complex revenue recognition models – such as software companies, service companies, and project-based companies are finding the implementation of IFRS 15/ASC 606 a challenging task.

Here are a few examples for where this task may prove challenging:

• How to implement precise postings of revenue recognition, without “drowning” in a collection of manually managed Excel documents and without settling for partially handling the revenue via the ERP system?
• How to ensure that the chosen revenue recognition policy is property executed and posted in accordance with standardization?
• How to simply and automatically put together a policy for executing postings of:
  • Performance undertakings stipulated in each contract, order and/or invoice
  • Weighting of non-dependent prices for each component of the order and/or invoice (even where this is carried out by several iterations)
• How to execute “What If” analyses in a simple manner and carry out parallel postings of several revenue recognition methods (IFRS in comparison with ASC etc.)
• How to automatically and easily handle estimate changes over a period of time
• How to exercise controls over intact Postings pertaining to revenue recognition, and prevent errors which inevitably necessitate the filing of Restatements later on
