| 16 | If the entity retains significant risks of ownership, the transaction is not a sale and revenue is not recognised. An entity may retain a significant risk of ownership in a number of ways. Examples of situations in which the entity may retain the significant risks and rewards of ownership are: (a) when the entity retains an obligation for unsatisfactory performance not covered by normal warranty provisions; (b) when the receipt of the revenue from a particular sale is contingent on the derivation of revenue by the buyer from its sale of the goods; (c) when the goods are shipped subject to installation and the installation is a significant part of the contract which has not yet been completed by the entity; and (d) when the buyer has the right to rescind the purchase for a reason specified in the sales contract and the entity is uncertain about the probability of return.
