Revenue Recognition

Also called: rev rec, ASC 606, IFRS 15

Revenue recognition is the set of rules deciding when a sale counts as revenue — broadly, when control of the good or service transfers to the customer. Modern standards use a five-step model built on performance obligations. It's the single most manipulated area in accounting: channel stuffing, bill-and-hold arrangements and aggressive percentage-of-completion estimates all live here.
