The Cloudy Sky Construction Company specializes in large construction projects. In year 1, it entered into a 3 year construction project to build a slow curing bridge foundation at a total price of $6,375,000. At the conclusion of the project, the following information was compiled.
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3
Collections to date $1,147,500 $3,442,500 $6,056,250
Billings to date 1,275,000 3,825,000 6,375,000
Costs incurred to date 1,550,000 4,125,000 4,675,000
Estimated costs to complete as of the end of each year 2,500,000 725,000 0
Instructions:
(1) Assuming that Cloudy Sky uses the percentage-of-completion method, compute the amount of gross profit to be recognized each year.
(2) Prepare all necessary journal entries for each year under the percentage-of-completion method. Assume that all billings were paid in the year billed except for year 3, and that all costs were paid in cash. You may omit explanations.
(3) Assuming the use of the completed-contract method, compute the amount of gross profit to be recognized each year.
(4) Prepare all necessary journal entries for each year under the completed-contract method. Assume that all billings were paid in the year billed except for year 3, and that all costs were paid in cash. You may omit explanations.
Here is what I have so far, I am just stuck and I am not understanding what I need to do next, nor am I sure that #1 and #2 are actually correct, this is my first time doing this. Please help
