Accounting for Construction Contracts (Summary - Step by Step Process)
Step #1: Compute for the Expected Profit or Loss of the Contract
*How?
Total Contract Price XXX
Less: Total Expected Construction Costs
(Cost incurred to date + Estimated Cost to complete) (XXX)
Expected Profit or Loss XX / (XX)
*Why is it important?
1. If there is a profit, recognize revenue using:
a. Percentage of Completion Method (General Rule)
b. Cost Recovery Method (Zero-Profit Method)
*Note: If revenue cannot be measured reliably.
2. If there is a loss, recognize the full amount of loss. (provision)

*Note: This is also known as onerous contract
Step #2: Compute for the Percentage of Completion

*How?
a. Input Method
b. Output Method
*Based on the problem. (surveys of work performed)
*Why is it important?
To determine the amount of revenue to be recognized TO DATE!!! (Cummulative)
**Total Contract Price x POCM
Step #3: Compute for the Current Period Revenues, Costs and Profit
*Note: Always check the previous year amounts (PAS 8)
*How?
1. To check the current period profit or Loss
Profit or Loss to date XXX
Less: Profit or loss recognized in previous years (XXX)
Profit or Loss (Current Period) XXX
2. To check the current period construction costs

Construction Costs to date XXX
Less: Previous year construction costs (XXX)
Current period Construction Costs XXX
3. To check the revenue of the current period

Revenue recognized to date (Based on Step #2) XXX
Less: Previous year revenues (XXX)
Current Period Revenues XXX
Step #4: Journal Entries
