Required:
a. Compute the amount of gross profit to be recognized each year, assuming the percentage-of-completion method is used.
b. Prepare all necessary journal entries for 2015
c. Compute the amount of gross profit to be recognized each year, assuming the completed-contract method is used.

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
