A vendor is running a promotion whereby an end customer who purchases three boxes of golf balls at $20 per box in a single transaction receives an offer for one free box of golf balls if the customer fills out a request form and mails it to the vendor before a set expiration date (a mail-in rebate). The vendor estimates, based on recent experience with similar promotions, that 80% of the customers will complete the mail-in rebate required to receive the free box of golf balls. How should the consideration be allocated to the various deliverables in the arrangement?

Spotlight Video is a premier video rental company in Denver, Colorado, offering the latest selections on DVD, game, and VHS releases. After DVDs and VHS tapes have been viewed a certain number of times, their quality deteriorates to the point that Spotlight Video considers them to be defective.
