Distinct Performance Obligations

Floyd Corporation is a large engineering and construction company that designs and builds office buildings, apartment buildings, distribution warehouses and other structures for its customers. Projects usually begin with a design and engineering phase, followed by construction of the work customers facility. The design/engineering and construction activities take place in separate divisions of Floyd Corporation, and these two divisions bill separately for their work.

A typical three-year project might have the following pattern of work and billing (in $ millions).

	Design/Engineering		Construction		Total
Year	Cost incurred	Billings to customer	Cost incurred	Billings to customer	Cost incurred	Billings to customer
1	21	30	-	-	21	30
2	6	9	45	36	51	45
3	3	6	30	54	33	60
Total	30	45	75	90	105	135

a. Assume that Floyd Corporation determines that the work of the design/engineering division and the construction division are separate performance obligations, that these performance obligations are satisfied over time, and that cost incurred is reflective of the value transferred to the customer. For years 1, 2, and 3, determine the amount that Floyd Corporation will recognize in revenue and expense. What is the margin percentage reported in each year?

Note: Round answers to one decimal place, including percentages. (Ex: 0.2345 = 23.5%).

b. Assume that Floyd Corporation determines that the work of the design/engineering division and the construction division requires too much coordination to be considered separate performance obligations. The combined performance obligation is satisfied over time and cost incurred is reflective of the value transferred to the customer. For years 1, 2, and 3, determine the amount that Floyd Corporation will recognize in revenue and expense. What is the margin percentage reported in each year?

Note: Round answers to one decimal place, including percentages. (Ex: 0.2345 = 23.5%).
