Question

On Mareh 1, 2014, Pechstein Construction Company contracted to construct a factory building for Fabrik Manufacturing Inc. for a total contract price of $9,576,000. The building was completed by October 31, 2016. The annual contract costs incurred, estimated costs to complete the contract, and accumulated billings to Fabrik for 2014, 2015, and 2016 are given below. Using the percentage-of-completion method, compute the profit or loss to be recognized as a result of this contract for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, and 2016. (Ignore income taxes.) (Enter loss amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).) Using the completed-contract method, compute the profit or loss to be recognized as a result of this contract for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, and 2016. (Ignore incomes taxes.) (Enter loss amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)

Explanation / Answer

(a)                                                Computation of Recognizable Profit/Loss

                                                           Percentage-of-Completion Method

           

  2014

          Costs to date (12/31/14)......................................................................                              $3,283,200

          Estimated costs to complete...............................................................                              4,012,800

                    Estimated total costs.................................................................                              $7,296,000

          Percent complete ($3,283,200 ÷ $7,296,000)....................................                                        45%

          Revenue recognized ($9,576,000 X 45%).........................................                              $4,309,200

          Costs incurred....................................................................................                              3,283,200

          Profit recognized in 2014...................................................................                             $ 1,026,000

     2015

          Costs to date (12/31/15)

            ($3,283,200 + $2,496,600)..............................................................                              $5,825,400

          Estimated costs to complete...............................................................                              2,496,600

                    Estimated total costs.................................................................                              $8,322,000

          Percent complete ($5,825,400 ÷ $8,322,000)....................................                                        70%

          Revenue recognized in 2015     ($9,576,000 X 70%) – $4,309,200 $2,394,000   

Cost incurred in 2015                                                                                                   2,496,600   

__________                                                                    

          Loss recognized in 2015.....................................................................                              $ (102,600)

  2016

          Total revenue recognized..................................................................                              $5,825,400

          Total costs incurred...........................................................................                              8,322,000

          Total profit on contract.....................................................................                                2,496,600

          Deduct profit previously recognized

              ($1,026,000 – $102,600)..................................................................                                  9,23,400

          Profit recognized in 2016...................................................................                          $   1,573,200*

(b)                                                Computation of Recognizable Profit/Loss

                                                               Completed-Contract Method

          2014—NONE

          2015—NONE

     2016

          Total revenue recognized..................................................................                               $5,825,400

          Total costs incurred...........................................................................                               8,322,000
