To calculate: The amount of revenue and gross profit or loss to be recognized in the year 2018, 2019, and 2020.
Explanation of Solution
Recognized revenue
In the year 2018:
Here,
Contract price is $8,000,000,
Actual cost to date is $2,000,000,
Total estimated cost is $6,000,000.
Now, calculate the revenue recognition:
Hence, the calculated revenue recognition is $2,666,667.
In the year 2019:
Here,
Contract price is $8,000,000,
Actual cost to date is $4,500,000,
Total estimated cost is $8,100,000,
Revenue recognition in 2018 is $2,666,667.
Now, calculate the revenue recognition:
Hence, the calculated revenue recognition is $1,777,778.
In the year 2020:
Here,
Contract price is $8,000,000,
Revenue recognition in 2018 is $2,666,667,
Revenue recognition in 2019 is $1,777,778.
Now, calculate the revenue recognition:
Hence, the calculated revenue recognition is $3,555,555.
Recognized gross profit
In the year 2018:
Here,
Revenue recognition in 2018 is $2,666,667
Actual cost to date is $2,000,000.
Now, calculate the gross profit recognition:
Hence, the calculated gross profit recognition is $666,667.
In the year 2019:
Here,
Revenue recognition in 2019 is ($100,000)
Gross profit recognition in 2018 is $666,667.
Now, calculate the gross profit recognition:
Hence, the calculated gross loss recognition is ($766,667).
In the year 2020:
Here,
Revenue recognition in 2020 is ($300,000)
Revenue recognition in 2019 is ($100,000).
Now, calculate the gross profit recognition:
Hence, the calculated gross loss recognition is ($200,000).
