Accuracy of revenue
Note 12 to the consolidated profit and loss
account in the financial statements
Revenue is an important measure used to evaluate the
performance of the company (also refer to the
materiality). There is a risk that the revenue is
presented for amounts higher than what has been
actually generated by the company. Revenue is
accounted for when the sales transactions have been
completed, when goods are delivered to the customer
and all economic risks for Beter Bed have been
transferred as a result. Revenue is generated through
store sales as well as online sales. Delivery has been
completed when goods are paid and transferred to the
customer in store, or when goods are paid by the
customer and delivered on location. These transactions
are mainly processed automatically through IT. Based
on the high IT dependency and the potential effects of
inaccurate revenue transactions on margin, we have
concluded that the accuracy of revenue is a key audit
matter that will be addressed in our audit
