Answer:

revenue recognized is $21,176

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the revenue recognized is shown below:

= received amount for 17 months × given months ÷ total number of months

= $36,000 × 10 months ÷ 17 months

= $21,176

The 10 month is calculated from March 1 to December 31

Hence, revenue recognized is $21,176
