LONG-TERM CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS

LONG-TERM CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
========================================================================

In accounting for long-term construction contracts (those taking longer than one year to complete), the two methods commonly followed are percentage-of-completion and completed-contract.
 (a)    The revenue recognized on a long-term construction contract under the percentage-of-completion method is determined by applying a percentage representing the degree of completion to the total contract price at the end of the accounting period. The percentage may be derived by dividing the costs incurred to date by the total estimated costs of the entire contract based on the most recent information. The revenue so derived is then reduced by the direct contract costs to determine the gross profit recognized in the initial period.
         In subsequent periods, since the percentage-of-completion method described produces cumulative results, revenue and gross profit recognized in prior periods must be subtracted to obtain current revenue and gross profit to be recognized.
         Under the completed-contract method, no earnings are recognized until the contract is substantially completed. For the period in which completion occurs, gross revenues include the total contract price. Total job costs incurred are deducted from gross revenues, resulting in recognition of the entire amount of gross profit in the completion period. If it is expected that a loss will occur on the contract, a provision for loss should be recognized immediately under both the completed-contract method and the percentage-of-completion method.
(b)      The percentage-of-completion method should be used when estimates of the bases upon which progress is measured are reasonably dependable and all the following conditions exist:
         1.      The contract clearly specifies the enforceable rights regarding goods or services to be provided and received by the parties, the consideration to be exchanged, and the manner and terms of settlement.
          2.      The buyer can be expected to satisfy all obligations under the contract.
          3.      The contractor can be expected to perform the contractual obligation.
         The completed-contract method should be used when inherent hazards or lack of dependable estimates cause the forecasts to be of doubtful value.
(c)     Under the percentage-of-completion method, a schedule is made of the contracts in process, showing the total costs incurred as of the end of a given period, the estimated gross profit recognized based on the degree of completion, and the total billings rendered on each individual contract. If costs incurred plus recognized profits exceed the related billings on a contract, this net figure is shown as a current asset.  This treatment shows that the contractor has not fully billed the customer for work performed to date and has a claim against the customer for that portion of work completed but not yet billed. If billings on a contract exceed costs incurred plus estimated profits, this net figure is shown as a current liability, which means that the contractor has overbilled the customer for work done to date and must complete the work represented by the excess billings.
         Under the completed-contract method, the treatment of excess costs and billings is the same as under the percentage-of-completion method except that estimated profits are not computed because profit recognition is deferred until a contract is completed. The excess of costs over related billings on a contract is a current asset while the excess of billings over related costs on a contract is a current liability.

PROBLEM 1
Waya Construction Co. has used the cost to cost percentage of completion method of recognizing profits. Lia Ortega assumes leadership of the business after the retirement of her mother Lyca. In reviewing the records, Lia finds the following information regarding a recently completed building project for which the total contract was P500,000.

Cost incurred/year                                             90,000              ?                   P205,000
Lia wants to know how effectively the company operated during the last three years on this project and, since the information is not complete, has asked you to help by answering the following questions

PROBLEM 4
(1)
Using the completed-contract method, no gross profit is recognized on the contract until the bridge is completed. Thus, no entry is needed.

(2)

Cost of Long-Term Construction Contracts ...
1,800,000  

Construction in Progress ...................
450,000 *

Revenue from Long-Term Construction
 Contracts..................................


2,250,000
  P1,800,000 / 30% = P6,000,000


  P7,500,000 - P6,000,000 = P1,500,000


  P1,500,000 ´ 30% = P450,000





PROBLEM 5       

(1)

Progress billings on construction contract ............
P562,000
Less accounts receivable ..............................
 150,500
Cash collected in 2009 ................................
P411,500

(2)
Gross profit from construction contract + Construction in progress = Revenue for 2009
P301,000 + P602,000 = P903,000
P903,000/P7,525,000 = 12%     Percentage completed in 2009
P301,000/.12 = P2,508,333     Estimated income on construction contract
