Answer:

Explanation:

a. Gross profit in 2014:

Contract price = $1,600,000

Costs = $400,000 + $600,000 = $1,000,000

400,000/1,000,000= 40%

$1,600,000 - $1,000,000 = $600,000

$600,000*40% = $240,000

Gross profit in 2015:

Contract price = $1,600,000

Costs = $825,000 + $275,000 = $1,100,000

825,000/1,100,000= 75%

$1,600,000 - $1,100,000 = $500,000

$500,000*75% = $375,000

Gross profit = 375,000 - 240,000 = $135,000

Gross profit in 2016:

Contract price = $1,600,000

Costs = $1070,000

$1,600,000 - $1,070,000 = $530,000

Gross profit = 530,000 - 240,000 - 135,000 = $155,000

b.

2015 $0

2016 $530,000

Gross Profit Recognized in 2016:

Gross profit $1,600,000-1070,000 = $530,000

a. The gross profit of each year (by percentage-of-completion method) is:

2014 :$240,000

2015 : $135,000

2016 :$155,000

b. The journal entries are attached in the image below.

c. The gross profit of each year (by completed-contract method) is:

2014 :$0

2015 : $0

2016 :$530,000

Computations:

a.

The formula used to compute gross profit by percentage-of-completion method  and the percentage of completion is:

[tex]\text{Gross Profit}=[\text{Contract Price\;-\;Cost}]\times\text{Percentage of Completion}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Percentage of Completion}=\dfrac{\text{Cost Incurred+Estimated Cost for Completing}}{\text{Total Cost}}[/tex]

2014:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Percentage of Completion}&=\dfrac{\$400,000+\$600,000}{\$1,000,000}\\&=40\%\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Gross Profit of 2014}&=[\$1,600,000-\$1,000,000]\times40\%\\&=\$240,000\end{aligned}[/tex]

2015:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Percentage of Completion}&=\dfrac{\$825,000+\$275,000}{\$1,100,000}\\&=75\%\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Gross Profit of 2015}&=[\$1,600,000-\$1,100,000]\times75\%\\&=\$135,000\end{aligned}[/tex]

2016:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Gross Profit of 2015}&=[\$1,600,000-\$1,070,000]\\&=\$530,000-\$240,000-\$135,000\\&=\$155,000\end{aligned}[/tex]

c. There will be zero profit for 2014 and 2015 from the completed-contract method as the contract is not yet completed but the profit for 2016 will be $530,000 that is contract price less actual cost.
