Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on the approach measurement of the company's process under the contract; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future event.
