between two and threeyears to complete the project. The total contract price for construction of the

building is $4,000,000. Curtiss appropriately accounts for this contract under the completed contract

method in its financial statements. The building was completed on December 31, 2015. Estimated

percentage of completion, accumulated contract costs incurred, estimated costs to complete the contract,

and accumulated billings to Axelrod under the contract were as follows:

contracts, compute gross profit or loss to be recognized in each of the three years.

3. Assuming the percentage-of-completion method, compute the amount to be shown in the balance sheet

at the

end of 2013 and 2014 as either cost in excess of billings or billings in excess of costs.
