A fixed rate contract is the contract whereby the payment amount isn't dependent on the resources or the time that were used.
Since there's evidence that a fixed-rate contract is over budget and will generate a loss for the firm, the manager should recognize the loss in the current period rather than over the remaining term of the engagement.

The entire $4,000 is therefore ordinary income.
