Respuesta :

mchaid015

Answer:

2014 =  zero

2015 = $6,450

Explanation:

2014

Under the completed-contract method of accounting, revenue, expenses, and gross profit is deferred until the completion of the contract.  If at the end of the business fiscal year of a company work on a contract remains incomplete, no revenue, expenses, and profit on that contract is recognized in the current year on the income statement; all costs and billings are accumulated in respective balance sheet accounts.

2015

This year, the construction is completed so Horner Construction Co. will now recognize its Revenue and gross profit in relation to the project.

            Contract price          $16,500,000

Less:     constructions costs   10,050,000

             Gross profit             $6,450,000

* construction cost    =    ($5,850,000 + $4,200,000)
