A construction company entered into a fixed-price contract to
build an office building for $12 million. Construction costs
incurred during the first year were $4 million and estimated costs
to complete at the end of the year were $6 million. The company
recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of
completion.
How much revenue and gross profit or loss will appear in the
company’s income statement in the first year of the contract?
Revenue appear in the company's income statement = Total Revenue * (Cost incurred during the first year / Total cost)
= $12,000,000 * [$4,000,000 / ($4,000,000 + $6,000,000)]
= $12,000,000 * ($4,000,000 / $10,000,000)
= $12,000,000 * 0.40
= $4,800,000
Gross profit appear the company's income statement = Gross Profit * (Cost incurred during the first year / Total cost)
Gross profit = Total revenue - Total cost
= $12,000,000 - ($4,000,000 + $6,000,000)
= $12,000,000 - $10,000,000
= $2,000,000
Gross profit appear the company's income statement = $2,000,000 * ($4,000,000 / $10,000,000)
= $2,000,000 * 0.4
= $800,000
