On July 15, 2018, Ortiz & Co

On July 15, 2018, Ortiz & Co. signed a contract to provide EverFresh Bakery with an ingredient-weighing system for a price of $90,000. The system included finely tuned scales that fit into EverFresh's automated assembly line, Ortiz's proprietary software modified to allow the weighing system to function in EverFresh's automated system, and a one-year contract to calibrate the equipment and software on an as-needed basis. (Ortiz competes with other vendors who offer ongoing calibration contracts for Ortiz's systems.) If Ortiz was to provide these goods or services separately, it would charge $60,000 for the scales, $10,000 for the software, and $30,000 for the calibration contract. Ortiz delivered and installed the equipment and software on August 1, 2018, and the calibration service commenced on that date.
- Assume that the scales, software and calibration service are viewed as one performance obligation. How much revenue will Ortiz recognize in 2018 for this contract?

A) $0
B) $37,500
C) $63,000
