PROBLEMS:
1. Corona Virus Company began work on a project that has a contract price of Php 5,000,000. At
the beginning of 2020, a change order increased the initial contract price by Php 250,000. The
company uses the percentage-of-completion basis of revenue recognition. In relation to the
project, the following data are obtained:
2020 2021
Cost incurred to date…….. P 2,530,000 P 4,350,000
Estimated costs to complete 2,500,000 840,000
Billings made……………… 2,870,000 4,850,000
Collection made…………… 2,050,000 4,060,000
What is the gross profit (loss) should Corona Virus Company recognize in 2020?
2. Bryant Construction Company enters into contract with a customer for the construction of a
building on July 1, 2020. The contract price is Php 5,000,000. However, Bryant is entitled to a
bonus of Php 500,000 if the building is completed within 3 years. Bryant Co. uses the cost-to-
cost method in measuring its progress on the contract. At contract inception, Bryant Co.
estimates a total contract cost of Php 3,000,000.
In 2020, Bryant Co. incurs total costs of Php 1,260,000. On December 31, 2020, due to bad
weather conditions, Bryant Co. does not expect that it can finish the building on time for it to
be entitled to the bonus. The estimated costs to complete as of the end of 2020 are Php
1,890,000.
On January 2, 2021, Bryant Co. and the customer agree to modify the contract to change the
design and location of the staircase. The modification increased the contract price and the
estimated total contract costs to Php 5,800,000 and Php 3,500,000, respectively. On this date,
due to improvements in weather conditions, Bryant Co. now expects that it is highly probable
that it can finish the building on time for it to be entitled to the bonus.
In assessing the contract modification, Bryant Co. concludes that the remaining goods and
services to be provided using the modified contract are not distinct from the goods and
services transferred on or before the date of contract modification; that is, the contract
remains a single performance obligation.
What is the revenue for 2020 and the cumulative catch-up adjustment to revenue to be
recognized on contract modification date on January 2, 2021, respectively?
3. In 2020, Taal Co. entered into a fixed price contract with Volcano, Inc. to construct a building
for Php 9,000,000. In 2021, the design of the building was changed. As a result, the initial
price is decreased by Php 1,500,000. The construction was started in 2020 and was completed
in 2022. Taal Co. uses the cost-to-cost method in measuring its progress on the construction
contract.
Information on the construction is provided below:
Contract costs incurred Estimated total
each year contract costs
2020 P 1,000,000 P 9,100,000

2022 1,500,000 -
The costs incurred in 2022 included costs of variations in contract work amounting to Php
50,000. These costs were due to Volcano’s fault and it is currently being disputed by Taal.
Negotiations with Volcano have reached an advanced stage such that it is probable that
Volcano will accept the claim for the Php 50,000 reimbursement. Taal assessed that it has
an enforceable right over the claim. The claim is expected to be received in January 2023.
