Question

Perfectionist Construction Company was the low bidder on an office building construction contract. The contract bid was $9,000,000, with an estimated cost to complete the project of $7,000,000. The contract period was 30 months starting May 1, 2014. The company uses the cost-to-cost method of estimating earnings. Because of changes requested by the customer, the contract price was adjusted downward to $8,600,000 on May 1, 2015.

A record of construction activities for the years 2014-2017 is as follows:

2016 1,670,000 2,700,000 2,500,000
