Source text - English After delivery of a product or performance of a service, if uncertainty exists about customer acceptance, revenue should not be recognized until acceptance occurs. Customer acceptance provisions may be included in a contract to enforce a customer's rights to (1) test the delivered product (2) require the seller to perform additional services subsequent to delivery of an initial product or performance of an initial service or (3) identify other work necessary to be done before accepting the product. When such customer acceptance provisions exist, the seller should not recognize revenue until customer acceptance occurs or the acceptance provisions lapse.
Translation - Polish Jeżeli po dostarczeniu towarów lub zrealizowaniu usługi występuje niepewność związana z akceptacją nabywcy, przychodu nie należy ujmować do momentu uzyskania akceptacji. Warunki akceptacji nabywcy mogą zostać podane w umowie, aby możliwe było egzekwowanie przysługujących nabywcy uprawnień do: (1) przetestowania nabywanego produktu; (2) wymagania od sprzedawcy wykonania dodatkowych usług po dostarczeniu pierwotnego produktu lub po wykonaniu pierwotnej usługi; bądź (3) określenia innych prac, których wykonanie wymagane jest przed zaakceptowaniem produktu. Gdy takie warunki akceptacji przez nabywcę zostaną spełnione, sprzedawca nie powinien ujmować przychodu, dopóki nabywca nie udzieli akceptacji lub dopóki nie ustanie konieczność spełnienia warunków akceptacji.
English to Polish: Product License Agreement
Source text - English Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction or any other authority vested with jurisdiction, such holding will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other term or provision hereto and this Agreement will be interpreted and construed as if such term or provision, to the extent the same will have been held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, had never been contained herein. The parties agree to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
Translation - Polish Rozdzielność. Jeżeli jakiekolwiek postanowienie niniejszej Umowy zostanie uznane za nieważne lub niewykonalne przez jakikolwiek sąd właściwy lub jakikolwiek organ posiadający jurysdykcję, takie postanowienie pozostanie bez wpływu na obowiązywanie lub wykonalność wszelkich pozostałych postanowień niniejszej Umowy, a ponadto wykładnia niniejszej Umowy będzie przygotowywana i stosowana tak, jak gdyby takie postanowienie, w zakresie, w jakim zostało uznane za nieważne, sprzeczne z prawem lub niewykonalne, nigdy nie stanowiło części niniejszej Umowy. Strony zgadzają się zastąpić wszelkie nieważne, sprzeczne z prawem lub niewykonalne postanowienia postanowieniami ważnymi, zgodnymi z prawem i wykonalnymi w największym możliwym stopniu zbliżonymi co do skutków gospodarczych do takich postanowień nieważnych, sprzecznych z prawem lub niewykonalnych.
