The Martino Corporation, in attempt to raise revenues, begins selling goods with an automatic right to return within six months if not completely satisfied. On November 1, $35,000 worth of goods with a cost of $22,000 are sold. Company officials expect that 15% of the goods sold will be returned before the expiration date in the following year. How much gross profit should be recognized on this sale in the current year?
Because the company can reasonably estimate that 15% of goods will be returned, it should record an allowance and therefore only record 85% of its gross profit on these sales (100% - 15%). Final GP should thus be $13K ($35K sales - $22K expenses) x 85%.

Equipment is bought by ABC Company for $550,000 on January 1, Year 1. After 3 years, $270,000 worth of depreciation has been recorded. At that time the asset has a fair market value of $310,000 and it is exchanged for a similar asset with a fair market value of $300,000. ABC also receives $10,000 in the exchange. What amount of gain should ABC realize as a result of this transaction?
The company will recognize a gain in the amount of the difference between the book value of the asset given up ($550K purchase price - $270K accumulated depreciation = $280K) and the fair value of the asset given up of $310K. $310K - $280K = $30K gain. Note that only 3.2% of this gain would actually be recognized ($10K cash received / total consideration of $310K).
