Question: Case 2 2 - 4 e Upscale Management Co . Upscale Management Co . ( the Company ) enters into a contract with Second City

Case 22-4e
Upscale Management Co.
Upscale Management Co.(the "Company") enters into a contract with Second City Hotels (the "Customer") to provide hotel management services. The contract is for a fiveyear period at a fixed price of $10,000 per day (total transaction price of $18.25 million per day 1,825 days]). The Company's hotel management services include hiring and managing employees, procuring goods and services, and advertising and marketing at one hotel property owned by the Customer.
On a given day, the Company might clean guest rooms, perform marketing efforts to increase occupancy, and operate the concierge desk. The nature of the contract is to provide integrated hotel management services ("integrated services") over the term of the contract and not a specific quantity of specified services (e.g., cleaning 100 guest rooms per day). The underlying activities can vary significantly from day to day; however, the daily activities are required to satisfy the Company's obligation to provide the integrated services. Therefore, the integrated services transferred to the customer are substantially the same during each period (i.e., the Customer receives substantially the same benefit each period).
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic and related travel restrictions and other containment efforts have had a significant impact on the travel industry. As a result, after providing two years of integrated services (for which the Company recognized $7.3 million in revenue [ $10,000 per day 365 days per year 2 years]), because of the conomic downturn resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company agrees to lower the price for the remaining three years of integrated services to $8,000 per day.
