Three simple steps to study smarter
No complicated setup. Just highlight, click, and learn.
Highlight text on any page
Select any accounting content on a webpage — a textbook paragraph, a practice problem, or lecture notes. A floating menu appears with your study options.
Click the Study Buddy icon
Click the extension icon in your toolbar to open the side panel. Choose to summarize the full page or work with your highlighted selection.
Learn, quiz, or review
Pick what you need: a clear summary, a lemonade-stand example, a calm explanation, or an exam-style quiz. Results appear instantly in the side panel.
Pro tip: Highlight specific text on the page before using any feature. This focuses your summary, explanation, or quiz on exactly what you're studying — instead of the entire page.

TL;DR
Revenue recognition under ASC 606 requires companies to recognize revenue when control of goods or services transfers to the customer, following a five-step model that replaced the older rules-based approach.
Key Accounting Takeaways
- Five-step model: Identify contract → Identify performance obligations → Determine transaction price → Allocate price → Recognize revenue
- Revenue is recognized when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied
- The concept of "control transfer" replaced the older "risks and rewards" approach
- Variable consideration must be estimated and constrained
- Contract modifications may require separate accounting
Key Terms & Definitions
- Performance Obligation: A promise to transfer a distinct good or service
- Transaction Price: The amount of consideration expected in exchange for goods/services
- Variable Consideration: Discounts, rebates, refunds, or bonuses that make the price uncertain
How This Shows Up on an Exam
- Expect multi-step problems requiring you to walk through all 5 steps
- Watch for questions testing whether goods/services are "distinct" (can the customer benefit from it on its own?)
