ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEM
Income before bonus and before tax 4,400,00
Bonus 10%
Income tax rate 30%
CASE 1 – BONUS IS BASED ON NET INCOME BEFORE BONUS & BEFORE TAX
B = 0.10 (NI)
B = 0.10 (4,400,000)
B = 440,000
15
CASE 2 – BONUS IS BASED ON NET INCOME AFTER BONUS BUT BEFORE TAX
B = 0.10 (NI-B)
B = 0.10 (4,400,000 - B)
B = 440,000 – 0.10B
B + 0.10B = 440,000
1.10B= 440,000
B = 400,000

Intermediate Accounting 2 Chapters 1 and 2
CASE 3 – BONUS IS BASED ON NET INCOME AFTER BONUS & AFTER TAX
B = 0.10 (NI-B-T)
B = 0.10 [NI – B – 0.30 (NI – B)]
B = 0.10 [4,400,000 – B – 0.30 (4,400,000 – B)]
B = 0.10 (4,400,000 – B – 1,320,000 + 0.30B)
B = 440,000 – 0.10B – 132,000 + 0.03B
B + 0.10B – 0.03B = 440,000 – 132,000
1.07B = 308,000
B = 287,850
17
CASE 4 – BONUS IS BASED ON NET INCOME BEFORE BONUS BUT AFTER TAX
B = 0.10 (NI-T)
B = 0.10 [NI – 0.30 (NI – B)]
B = 0.10 [4,400,000 – 0.30 (4,400,000 – B)]
B = 0.10 (4,400,000 – 1,320,000 + 0.30B)
B = 440,000 – 132,000 + 0.03B
B – 0.03B = 440,000 – 132,000
0.97B = 308,000
B = 317,526

annual bonus of 10% of the net income after bonus and tax. The income tax rate is 30%. The general
manager received P280,000 for the current year as bonus.
37
SOLUTION 1-31
B = 0.10 (NI – B – T)
B = 0.10 [NI – B – 0.30 (NI -B)]
280,000 = 0.10 [NI – 280,000 – 0.30 (NI - 280,000)]
280,000 = 0.10 (NI – 280,000 – 0.30NI + 84,000)
280,000 = 0.10 NI – 28,000 – 0.03NI + 8,400)
280,000 + 28,000 – 8,400 = 0.10 NI – 0.03NI
280,000 + 28,000 – 8,400 = 0.10 NI – 0.03NI

An entity, a grocery retailer, operates a customer loyalty program. The entity grants program members
loyalty points when they spend a specified amount on groceries. Program members can redeem the
points for further groceries. The points have no expiry date.
The sales during 2020 amounted to P9,000,000 based on stand-alone selling price. During 2020, the
customers earned 10,000 points. But management expects that 80% or 8,000 of these points will be
redeemed. The stand-alone selling price of each loyalty point is estimated at P100. On December 31,
2020, 4,000 points have been redeemed in exchange for groceries.
In 2021, the management revised expectations and now expects that 90% or 9,000 points will be
redeemed altogether. During 2021, the entity redeemed 4,100 points. In 2022, a further 900 points are
redeemed. Management continues to expect that only 9,000 points will ever be redeemed, meaning,
no more points will be redeemed after 2022.
