Problem $6-12($Static$)$ Long$-$term contract; revenue recognized over time vs$.$ upon project completion;

loss projected on entire project $[$LO$6-9]$

Curtiss Construction Company, Incorporated, entered into a fixed$-$price contract with Axelrod Associates on July $1,2024,$ to construct a

four$-$story office building. At that time, Curtiss estimated that it would take between two and three years to complete the project. The

total contract price for construction of the building is $$4,000,000.$ The building was completed on December $31,2026.$ Estimated

percentage of completion, accumulated contract costs incurred, estimated costs to complete the contract, and accumulated billings to

Axelrod under the contract were as follows:

Required:

Compute gross profit or loss to be recognized as a result of this contract for each of the three years. Curtiss concludes that the

contract does not qualify for revenue recognition over time.

Assuming Curtiss recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion, compute gross profit or loss to be

recognized in each of the three years.

Assuming Curtiss recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion, compute the amount to be shown in the

balance sheet at the end of $2024$ and $2025$ as either cost in excess of billings or billings in excess of costs.
