Answer 1

Answer a)

If Eazy Company and Heaven Plantation apply guidelines stated in IFRS 15 to recognize revenue from the contract it is correct as the non-monetary exchanges between entities who are in same business to facilitate sales would not qualify for IFRS 15.

Since both the companies have different business namely Food and Orchard, they can recognize contract revenue as per IFRS 15.
