Explanation / Answer

Requirement 1

    ($ in millions)                                            2018              2019                2020

Contract price                                        $320              $320                $320

Actual costs to date                                    60                180                  230

Estimated costs to complete                    180                70                  - 0 -

Total estimated costs                               240                250                 230

Estimated gross profit (actual in 2020)   $ 80               $ 70                 $ 90

       Gross profit (loss) recognition:

       2018:           $60/240

= 25% x $80 = $20

  

       2019:         $180/250

= 72% x $70 = $50.4 - $20 = $30.4

2020:         $320-230 = $90 – ($20 + 30.4) = $39.6

Requirement 2

          2018: $320 x 25% = $80

2019: $320 x 72% = $230.4-80=150.4

2020: $320 – 230.4 = $89.6

Requirement 3

       2019:         $180 / (180+120)   

= 60% x $20* = $12 - 20 = $(8) loss

*$320 – ($60+120+120) = $20
