    1st example

    Bridgenorth has undertaken a $5million contract to repair a railway tunnel.The contract was signed in 1 April 20X8 and the work is expected to take two years.This is a contract where performance obligations are satisfied over time and progress in satisfying performance obligations is to be measured according to % of work completed as certified by a surveyor. Bridgenorth has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date

    At 31 December 20×9 the details of the contract were as follows
    —————————————————–20×9———-x0x8
    Total contract price—————————-5000——–5000
    cost to date————————————-3600——–2300
    estimated cost to completion————–700———-2100
    work invoiced———————————3000——–2000
    cash received——————————–2400——–1500
    %certified complete————————–75%——-40%

    What amount would have been included in trade receivables at 31 December 20×8?

    Under p/l
    revenue(5000*75%)=3750
    cost of sales(3600+700=4300*75%)=3225
    gross profit or profit recognised to date=525

    Under SOFP
    cost to date-3600
    profit recognised to date-525
    work invoiced—(3000)
    CONTRACT ASSET=1125

    Trade receivable(600)=work invoiced(3000) -(2400)cash received

    Second example

    Trial balance at 31 march 2017

    on 1 October 2013 Pricewell entered into a contract to construct a bridge over a river. The
    agreed price of the bridge is $50 million and construction was expected to be completed on 30
    September 2015. The $14•3 million in the trial balance is:

    materials, labour and overheads 12,000
    specialist plant acquired 1 October 2013 8,000
    payment from customer (5,700)
    ––––––
    14,300
    The sales value of the work done at 31 March 2014 has been agreed at $22 million and the estimated cost to complete (excluding plant depreciation) is $10 million. The specialist plant will have no residual value at the end of the contract and should be depreciated on a monthly basis. Pricewell recognises profits on uncompleted contracts on the percentage of completion basis as determined by the agreed work to date compared to the total contract price

    Solution

    cost to 31 march 20×7
    material-12000
    depreciation(8000/24*6)-2000
    overall-14000

    estimated cost excluding depreciation-10000
    depreciation-6000
    16000

    from 1 october 20×6 to 30 september 20×8 24 month
    from 1 october 20×6 to 31 march 20×7-6months-2000
    from 31 march 20×7 to 30 september 20×8-18mosths-6000

    percentage complete 22000/50000*100%=44%

    2nd example
    under p/l

    revenue(50000*44%)=22000
    cost of sales(16000+14000*44%)-13200
    gross profit-8800

    under SOFP
    cost to date-14000
    profit recognised-8800
    cash received(payment from customer)-(5700)
    trade receivable-17100

    1st example
    Under p/l
    revenue(5000*75%)=3750
    cost of sales(3600+700=4300*75%)=3225
    gross profit or profit recognised to date=525

    Under SOFP
    cost to date-3600
    profit recognised to date-525
    work invoiced—(3000)
    CONTRACT ASSET=1125

    Trade receivable(600)=work invoiced(3000) -(2400)cash received or (payment from customer)

    If you see in the first example work invoiced(3000) and cash received(2400) have been given and their difference will give me trade receivable, this is understandable.

    in the second example, work invoiced not given only cash received(payment from customer 5700) has been given but how can i recognised trade receivable ?

    2nd example SOFP
    under SOFP
    cost to date-14000
    profit recognised-8800
    cash received(payment from customer)-(5700)
    trade receivable-17100

    1at example? SOFP
    Under SOFP
    cost to date-3600
    profit recognised to date-525
    work invoiced—(3000)
    CONTRACT ASSET=1125

    You can’t! If no information is given then you can’t do it

    Did you watch the screen where I work through Pricewell?
