A company is accounting for a long-term construction contract where revenue is recognized over time. The project is built to the customer's specifications, and the customer can make changes as construction is ongoing. It is a 3-year, fixed-fee contract that is presently in its first year. The latest reasonable estimates of total contract costs indicate that the contract will be completed at a profit. The company will submit progress billings to the customer and has reasonable assurance that collections on these billings will be received in each year of the contract. The contract can be canceled at any time by the customer who will retain control of any work done to date.
Discuss the following:
a. When should revenue from contracts be accounted for overtime versus at a point in time?
b. How would the income recognized in each year of this long-term construction contract be determined using the cost-to-cost basis of determining progress toward satisfaction of the performance…
Lark Corp. appropriately determined that each of its long-term projects represents a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time. At the end of the current year, Lark estimates that its costs to complete a project exceed the contract price, so that an overall loss on the contract is anticipated.
Required:
What journal entry will Lark record at the end of the current year, given the following information?
•
Revenue to date is $350,000 ($175,000 of which is to be recognized in the current year).
•
The expense recognized previously was $100,000.
•
An overall loss of $30,000 is anticipated
When accounting for revenue over time for a long-term contract, the percentage of completion used to recognize revenue in the first year usually is determined by measuring:
A. Cost incurred in the 1st year, divided by estimated remaining cost to complete the project.
B. Cost incurred in the 1st year, divided by estimated total cost for the completed project.
C. Cost incurred in the 1st year, divided by estimated gross profit.
D. Cost incurred in the 1st year, divided by estimated total cost to be incurred in the remaining years of the project.
