3.Gross profit /loss ($3)

Explanation:

1. Computation of thr Gross Profit recognize over time assuming percentage of completion method

Using PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION

Using this formula

Choose numerator÷Choose denominator=% complete to date

Actual costs to date÷ Estimated total costs= %  

2021$40÷$160=25.00%

(40+120)  

2022$120(40+80)÷$180(40+80+60)=66.67%    

2023170  170  =100.00%

(40+80+50)    

2021

To date -Recognized in prior years =Recognized in 2018

Construction revenue$55(220*25%)$0$55

Less: Construction expense$40$0$40

Gross profit (loss)$15$0$15

2022

To date -Recognized in prior years =Recognized in 2019

Construction revenue$147(220*66.66%)$55$92

Less: Construction expense$120(40+80)$40$80

Gross profit (loss)$27$15$12

2023

To date -Recognized in prior years =Recognized in 2020

Construction revenue$220$147$73

Less: Construction expense$170(40+80+50)$120$50

Gross profit (loss)$50$27$23

2. Calculation for the Statement showing revenue and gross profit assuming this project does not qualify for revenue recognition over time. ( $ in Million)

YearRevenue recognizedGross Profit (Loss) recognized

2021$0  $0

2022$0  $0

2023$220$50(220-170)

3  Computation of the Revenue and gross profit or loss to be recognized in 2022 (using the percentage of completion )

Percentages of completion

Choose numerator÷Choose denominator=% complete to date

Actual costs to date ÷Estimated total costs=%  

2022$120(40+80)÷$200(40+80+80)=60.00%

d. the economy will face inflation.

there was no passage listed but using the process of elimination i'd say it was d. the high economy would do the opposite. i don't see how low prices would affect it. high unemployment is possible but i feel d is the better answer.
