Revenue Recognition, page 10 1. We note your response to prior comment 1. With a specific focus on your AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT product subscriptions (collectively "AutoCAD"), please tell us how you concluded that the promise to transfer the AutoCAD desktop application is not separately identifiable from the promise to transfer AutoCAD cloud services in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-21.Within your response please discuss, at a minimum: The specific functionalities that reside within the cloud services of AutoCAD and are incremental to the AutoCAD desktop application, with a focus on the specific Andrew Anagnost Autodesk, Inc. December 20, 2018 Page 2 functionalities that were significant to the Company's conclusion that the AutoCAD desktop application is not distinct from the AutoCAD cloud services. Additionally, please describe the extent to which these specific AutoCAD cloud service functionalities are incremental to similar functionalities, if any, in the AutoCAD desktop application. How the specific AutoCAD cloud service functionalities interact with and/or are integrated with the AutoCAD desktop application. How you determined that the nature of the promise, in the context of the contract, is to transfer the combined item to which the AutoCAD desktop application and the AutoCAD cloud services are inputs (for example, how each of the AutoCAD desktop application and the AutoCAD cloud services significantly affects the other's utility to the customer and therefore the customer's ability to derive its intended benefit from the contract depends on the Company transferring both the AutoCAD desktop application and the AutoCAD cloud services). Consider whether one or more examples would be helpful to illustrate this point. You may contact Megan Akst, Senior Staff Accountant, at (202) 551-3407 or Christine Dietz, Assistant Chief Accountant, at (202) 551-3408 with any questions.
