CN started a three?year contract to build a new university campus on 1 April 20X4. The contract had a fixed price of $90 million. CN willsatisfy the performance obligation over time. CN incurred costs to 31 March 20X5 of $77 million and estimated that a further $33 million would need to be spent to complete the contract. CN measures the progress of contracts using work completed compared to contract price. At 31 March 20X5, a surveyor valued the work completed to date at $63 million. Select the correct amounts to be shown in revenue and cost of sales in the statement of profit or loss for the year ended 31 March 20X5?
Step 1 – Overall
$m Price 90
incurred to date (77)
estimated future (33)
Overall loss (20)
Step 2 – Progress Progress = work certified 63/total price 90 = 70%
Step 3 – SPL $m
Revenue (70% of 90) 63
Cost of sales (balancing figure to recognise full loss) (83)
FULL loss to be recognised immediately (20)
Sir, my question is: 83 AMOUNT ?N THE PL: 77 COST TO DATE AND 6 PROVISION TO RECOGNISE LOSS? AM I RIGHT?
I was confused because of that in the book’s solution PL part didn’t deducted cost to date amount (77).
Hi,
The cost to date is included within the balancing figure of 83, and we just need to accrue for the additional cost of 6 that have been incurred.
Thanks.
