Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances.
Revenue represents the fair value of consideration received or receivable for the sale of skirting boards, architraves, and related goods, net of discounts, returns, and value-added tax (VAT).
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are met:
-The company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;
-The company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
-The amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
-It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company; and
-The costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Specifically, revenue is recognised at the point in time when the goods are delivered to the customer and legal title has passed, which is typically upon delivery unless otherwise contractually agreed. Delivery is considered to have occurred when the customer takes physical possession of the goods and has accepted them in accordance with the terms of sale.
