Revenue Recognition Over a Period of Time:

This time, well assume Bailey has determined that this project does satisfy the third criterion of the three identified in ASU 2014-09 for recognizing revenue over a period of time:

The customer consumes the benefit of the sellers work as it is performed

The customer controls the asset as it is created

The seller is creating an asset that has no alternative use to the seller, and the seller has the legal right to receive payment for progress to date

This means that revenue should be recognized over a period of time, based on the percentage of completion method. As long as reasonably reliable cost estimates are available for the project, we recognize a percentage of the revenue, expenses, and the resulting gross profit during each period as the project progresses, using the output-based progress measures identified in the contract. Note: construction costs, billing activities, and cash collection during the construction project are still tracked in balance sheet accounts (CIP, Billings, and A/R) described earlier.

Requirement:

Attached is a worksheet, with the first year of the project (2014) already completed using the Period-of-Time (percentage of completion) approach. Complete the 2^nd and 3^rd years for the project.

Note: the formulas along the right side of the worksheet will be helpful, but be sure to think carefully about what you are doing and why it makes sense because these formulas will not be provided on homework and examsin fact, you may not be provided with a worksheet at all.
