Lake Power Sports sells jet skis and other powered recreational equipment. Customers pay one-third of the sales price of a jet ski when they initially purchase the ski, and then pay another one-third each year for the next two years.

In 2017, Lake began operations and sold jet skis with a total price of $900,000 that cost Lake $450,000. Lake collected $300,000 in 2017, $300,000 in 2018, and $300,000 in 2019 associated with those sales. In 2018, Lake sold jet skis with a total price of $1,500,000 that cost Lake $900,000. Lake collected $500,000 in 2018, $400,000 in 2019, and $400,000 in 2020 associated with those sales. In 2020, Lake also repossessed $200,000 of jet skis that were sold in 2018.

Terra Bus Transportation provides on-campus bus services for universities. On January 1, it enters into a one-year contract with Moose University to operate five bus lines traveling throughout the campus.

In addition, Terra will receive an additional $120,000 at the end of each six-month period, provided it remains free of accidents. • On January 1, based on historical experience, Terra estimated that there is a 75% chance that it will remain free of accidents for the entire year. • On March 20, three of the most senior drivers at Terra abruptly left. As a result, Terra had to hire inexperienced drivers to fill the vacant positions.
