An asset recognized in accordance with paragraph [340-40-25-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-25-1) or [340-40-25-5](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-25-5) shall be amortized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer to the [customer](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#customer "A party that has contracted with an entity to obtain goods or services that are an output of the entity's ordinary activities in exchange for consideration.") of the goods or services to which the asset relates.

An entity shall recognize an impairment loss in profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of an asset recognized in accordance with paragraph [340-40-25-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-25-1) or [340-40-25-5](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-25-5) exceeds:

1.  a
    
    The amount of consideration that the entity expects to receive in the future and that the entity has received but has not recognized as revenue, in exchange for the goods or services to which the asset relates (“the consideration”), less
    
2.  b
    
    The costs that relate directly to providing those goods or services and that have not been recognized as expenses (see paragraphs [340-40-25-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-25-2) and [340-40-25-7](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-25-7)).

For the purposes of applying paragraph [340-40-35-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-35-3) to determine the consideration, an entity shall use the principles for determining the [transaction price](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/t/#transaction-price "The amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.") (except for the guidance in paragraphs

[606-10-32-11 through 32-13](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/606/10/#606-10-32-11)

on constraining estimates of variable consideration) and adjust that amount to reflect the effects of the customer's credit risk. When determining the consideration for the purposes of paragraph [340-40-35-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/340/40/#340-40-35-3), an entity also shall consider expected contract renewals and extensions (with the same customer).
