This story provides a detailed overview of revenue recognition under Ind AS 115, with a focus on the complexities faced by a public limited company operating in the shipbuilding industry. It addresses critical concerns such as the appropriate method for measuring progress towards fulfilling performance obligations i.e. whether to apply the output method or the input method, depending on the nature of the goods and services.
The document also discusses the implications of switching between methods for revenue recognition, clarifying whether this constitutes a change in accounting policy or an accounting estimate. Additionally, it provides insights on how to treat costs incurred during the shipbuilding process, specifically when physical progress doesn’t align with financial progress, and the criteria for classifying costs as either contract assets or receivables. The document emphasizes the need for clear and consistent application of these methods while ensuring proper disclosure in financial statements.
