For some subscription-based businesses, revenue recognition can be a relatively straightforward process that can be completed effectively using spreadsheets. However, recent changes sometimes require more sophisticated revenue recognition capabilities:
Subscription businesses that once offered simple pricing models ($9.99 per month, for example) are now finding that they need to offer more complex pricing to meet consumer demand. Take subscription boxes, for example. Today's subscribers expect to return any item in the box and receive credit. However, the merchant will not know how much revenue to recognize until after the subscriber has indicated which items they plan to keep.
The new revenue recognition standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) – known as ASC 606 / IFRS 15 – have introduced changes to revenue recognition procedures, as well as a requirement for dual reporting.
