Financial Intelligence works closely with management (and auditors and/or counsel when appropriate) to determine the proper accounting treatment and prepare position papers to document our conclusions thoroughly.

Revenue Recognition


Financial Intelligence professionals have helped public and private companies resolve complex revenue recognition issues in diverse industries and situations, including:

  • Software revenue transactions that involve development, multiple deliverables and complex bundles (VSOE)
     
  • Licensing of intellectual property other than software
     
  • Gross vs. net decisions
     
  • Sales transactions that involve special situations such as bill-and-hold and vendor-customer sales
     
  • Differences between US GAAP and IFRS

In each case, we work closely with management (and auditors and/or counsel when appropriate) to determine the proper accounting treatment and prepare position papers to document our conclusions thoroughly.

Beyond accounting theory and related position papers, we also provide clients with detailed financial analyses to explain the impact of accounting decisions on both historical and prospective financial results.

Our proven experience in solving extremely complex and diverse revenue recognition issues allows us to resolve issues and form defensible conclusions; document conclusions to satisfy demanding audit situations; and draft disclosures and complete the SEC filings quickly.
