Answer:

$85,558.34

Explanation:

The Transaction Price will be the Present Value of the amount to be received in 5 years.

We can simply calculate the Present Value (PV) using a financial calculator as follows :

FV= - $120,000

I = 7 %

N = 5

P/YR = 1

PMT = $0

PV = ?

Entering the data as above gives a Present (PV) as $85,558.34

therefore,

Millipede will recognize an  amount of sales revenue of $85,558.34
