Rocky Guide Service provides guided $1$ to $5$ day hiking tours throughout the Rocky Mountains. Wilderness Tours hires Rocky to lead

various tours that Wilderness sells. Rocky receives $$3,000$ per tour day, and shortly after the end of each month, Rocky learns whether

it will receive a $$300$ bonus per tour day it guided during the previous month if its service during that month received an average

evaluation of "excellent" by Wilderness customers. The $$3,000$ per day and any bonus due are paid in one lump payment shortly after

the end of each month.

On July $1,$ based on prior experience, Rocky estimated there is a $30\%$ chance it will earn the bonus for July tours. It guided a total of

$10$ days from July $1$ to July $15.$

On July $16,$ based on Rocky's view that it had provided excellent service during the first part of the month, Rocky revised its estimate

to an $80\%$ chance it would earn the bonus for July tours. Rocky also guided customers for $15$ days from July $16$ to July $31.$

On August $5,$ Rocky learned it did not receive an average evaluation of "excellent" for its July tours, so it would not receive any

bonus for July, and received all payment due for the July tours.

Rocky bases estimates of variable consideration on the expected value it expects to receive.
