In spring 2018, parmac engineering company signed a $160 million contract with the city of parkersburg, to construct a new city hall. parmac expects to construct the building within two years and incur expenses of $120 million. the city of parkersburg paid $40 million when the contract was signed, $80 million within the next six months, and the final $40 million exactly one year from the signing of the contract. parmac incurred $48 million in costs during 2018 and rest in 2019 to complete the contract on time. using the percentage-of-completion method how much revenue should parmac recognize in 2018?

By using the percentage-of-completion method the $64 million revenue should Parmac recognize in 2018

Explanation:

Percentage-of-completion method : Under this method,

First we have to calculate the percentage which is based on current period cost to total period cost.

After that, multiply the percentage with the revenue so that we get to know how much revenue is being recognized during an particular year.

In mathematically,

Estimated Cost percentage =  current period cost ÷ total period cost

                                              = $48 million ÷ $120 million

                                              = 40%

Now,

Revenue recognized = Estimated cost percentage × Revenue

                                   = 40% × $160 million

                                   = $64 million

Hence, by using the percentage-of-completion method the $64 million revenue should Parmac recognize in 2018
