Expert Solution

1. Percentage of Completion Method

Total costs = Incurred costs + Estimated costs to complete = $ 28m + $19m =                    

                                                                                               = $47m


Revenue to recognise = ( $ 28m / $ 47m x $ 38m) Less foreseeable losses of $ 9m

Net revenue to be recognised = $ 13.64m

Less : costs incurred                  ( $ 28m )
                                

     Gross Loss = $ 14.36m


2. Completed Contract Method


No revenue will be recognised, but foreseeable losses of $9m is recognised, so you will have a Gross Loss of $ 9m for this period.
