lys-0071 [83]
<span>If amortisation expenses are spread over 18 years rather than 6 years, amortisation expenses will be lower than they should be. This will cause an increase in net income.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

2021

revenues 420,000

gross profit 112,000

2022

revenues  1,680,000

gross profit   65,000

Explanation:

2021:

Cost incurred              308,000

Estimed to complete 1,232,000

Total cost                  1,540,000

Percentage of completion 308,000 / 1,540,000 = 20%

Revenue will be recongize for 20% of the total

2,100,000 x 20% = 420,000

Less Cost               (308,000)

Gross Profit              112,000

For 2022 we recognize the rest as the project is completed

2,100,000 - 420,000 = 1,680,000

Incurred Cost               (1,615,000)

Gross Profit                      65,000
