The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
How should CloudSync recognize revenue for its first enterprise contract under ASC 606, given multiple performance obligations and variable consideration?
This is not a data exercise. It is the work an analyst does when stakeholders need answers from messy data. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates describe statistical methods and none who have extracted insight from messy, real-world data.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Apply the ASC 606 five-step model to a complex contract
- Identify and evaluate distinct performance obligations
- Allocate transaction price and determine revenue recognition timing
- Assess risks related to variable consideration and contract modifications
