Question:

On June 21, 2011, Three Rivers Concrete Company signed a contract with Premier Power Incorporated to construct a dam over a river in northern British Columbia. The contract price was $42 million, and it was estimated that the project would cost Three Rivers Concrete $27 million to complete over a three-year period. On June 21, 2011, Premier Power paid Three Rivers Concrete $1.2 million as a default deposit. In the event that Premier Power backed out of the contract, Three Rivers Concrete could keep this deposit. Otherwise, the default deposit would apply as the final payment on the contract (assume, for accounting purposes, that this is treated as a deposit until contract completion).
