Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

                                                     2021            2022          2023

Bills during the year               2,180,000   2,644,000  5,176,000

Cost incurred in the year       2,016,000   2,808,000  2,613,600

Cumulative cost to date         2,016,000   4,824,000   7,437,000

Estimated cost to complete   5,184,000    2,376,000         0

Estimated total cost                7,200,000    7,200,000     7,437,000

percentage completion

2,016,000/7,200,000*100 =28%

4,824,000/7,200,000*100 = 67%

7,437,000/7,437,000 *100=100%

Percentage Completion                 28                 67              100

Contract price                           10,000,000

Less cumulative cost                 (7,437,000)

Gross profit                                 2,563,000

Contract value 2021  10,000,000* 28 %  =2,800,000

                          2022 10,000,000* 67%    = 6,700,000

                          2023  10,000,000*1005  = 10,000,000

Contract value                           2,800,000     6,700,000    10,000,000

less revenue recognized                                   2,800,000     6,700,000

                                                    2,800,000       3,900,00       3,300,000

less cost incurred in the year  2,016,000        2,808,000     2,613,000

Profit recognized                        784,000          1,092,000      687,000
