    Just follow below steps:

    Step 1: Determine estimated profit/loss of the total contract
    Estimated profit/loss = Contract price – Estimated total cost
    – If loss-making: recognise whole loss immediately
    Step 2: % of completion: 2 ways:
    Way1: Cost basic:
    % of completion = Costs to date used in contract (exclude unused)/ Total contract cost
    Way2: Sales basic:
    % of completion = Value completed to date and certified/ Total contract value
    Step 3: I/S extract:
    Revenue (Contract price x % completion)
    – Contract cost (Estimated total costs x % completion)


    Profit
    Revenue will be put in Sales, Contract Costs will be put in COS in I/S
    Step 4: SFP extract:
    Cost to date (including unused cost)
    + Profit recognised (step 2)
    – Progress billing received and receivable
    – Foreseenable loss if loss-making


    Amount due to/from customer
    + If positive result –> AR
    + If negative result –> AP

    Ooh okay . i’ll try to do some more exercise . Cause there’s one that has depreciation and rectification costs . that’s the one that’s confusing . and another one where the contract was done half way and we have to find “FOR THE YEAR”
