Explanation / Answer

1) Gross profit or loss to be recognized for each year under contract completion method is calculated as follows:-

Year 2018 Estimated Profit = Contract Price - Cost incurred to date - Estimated remaining costs

= $5,020,000 - $376,000 - $3,384,000 = $1,260,000

As there is an expected profit of $1,260,000 from the contract in 2018, no profit or loss will be recognized in 2018 as the construction is not yet completed.

Profit to be recognized in 2018 = $0

Year 2019 = Contract Price - Cost incurred to date - Estimated remaining costs

= $5,020,000 - $3,180,000 - $2,210,000 = ($370,000) loss

As there is a loss of $370,000. the whole amount of loss will be recognized in 2019.

Loss to be recognized in 2019 = $370,000

Year 2020 = Contract Price - Cost incurred to date - Estimated remaining costs

= $5,020,000 - $5,457,000 - $0 = ($437,000) loss

In 2020 an additional loss of $67,000 ($437,000-$370,000) will be recognized in 2020.

Loss to be recognized in 2020 = $67,000

2) Gross profit or loss to be recognized for each year under percentage of completion method is calculated as follows:-

Profit to be recognized in 2018 = Estimated Profit as calculated in req 1*Percentage completed

= $1,260,000*10% = $126,000

Year 2019 Estimated Loss ( as calculated in req 1) = $370,000

Profit already recognized in 2018 $126,000

Loss to be recognized in 2019 = $370,000+$126,000 = $496,000

Loss to be recognized in 2020 = $67,000 (same as requirement 1)

Req 1 Gross Profit (Loss) recognized ("Upon Completion")

3) Revenue to be recognized for 2018 = $5,020,000*10% = $502,000

Billings in excess of revenue 2018 = $975,000 - $502,000 = $473,000

Revenue to be recognized upto 2019 = $5,020,000*60% = $3,012,000

Revenue in excess of billings = $3,012,000 - $2,510,000 = $502,000
