I’d be happy to help but you need to show what you’ve done first before I do so. Remember what you need to do is to calculate the cost of sales figure for the year, so I’d start off by working out the total profit to be recognised on the contract based upon the percentage complete. You cant hen use this to get the total revenue and costs to be recognised to date and then compare this to what has already been recognised in prior years. The difference is what is to be recognised in the current year. See how you get on and let me know so that I can help further.
Thanks
