Solutions

Expert Solution

a.

2011 gross profit = $3,000,000 - 1,200,000

        = $1,800,000

 2012 gross profit = 0

 

b. 

2011 Cost recovery % = Cost ÷ Sales:

  $1,200,000 / $3,000,000

    = 40% (implying a gross profit % = 60%)

 

2011 gross profit = 2011 cash collection of $150,000 x 60% = $90,000

2012 gross profit = 2012 cash collection of $150,000 x 60% = $90,000  

 

c.

No gross profit will be recognized in either 2011 or 2012. Gross profit will not be recognized until the entire $1,200,000 cost of the land is recovered. In this case, it will take 8 payments to recover the cost of the land ($1,200,000 ÷ $150,000 = 8), so gross profit recognition will equal 100% of the cash collected beginning with the ninth installment payment.

a.

2011 gross profit = $1,800,000

2012 gross profit = $0

 

b. 

2011 gross profit = $90,000

2012 gross profit = $90,000  

 

c.

No gross profit will be recognized in either 2011 or 2012.
