Special Revenue Recognition: Construction Contracts

I. Introduction

PAS 11: Construction Contracts

Objective: PAS 11 prescribes the accounting for revenue and costs associated with construction contracts.

Construction constructs are generally long-term. The date at which the contract is entered into and the date
the contract is completed normally fall on different financial reporting periods. PAS 11, paragraph 1
therefore, acknowledges that the primary issue in accounting for construction contracts “is the allocation of
contract revenue and contract costs to the accounting periods in which construction work is performed.”

PAS 11 shall be applied by contractors in accounting for construction contracts.

II. Construction Contract

A construction contract is a contract specifically negotiated for the construction of an asset or a


combination of assets that are closely interrelated or interdependent in terms of their design, technology
and function or their ultimate purpose or use.

Two types of construction contract (or contract price):


1. Fixed price contract – the contractor agrees to a fixed contract price, or a fixed rate per unit of
output, which in some cases is subject to cost escalation clauses.
2. Cost plus contract – the contractor is reimbursed for allowable or otherwise define costs, plus a
percentage of these costs or a fixed fee.

III. Contract Revenue

The contract revenue should comprise:


a. The contract price or the initial amount agreed in the contract; and
b. Any subsequent variations in the contract price to the extent that it is probable that they will result
in revenue and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Contract revenue may increase or decrease from one period to the next due to the following:
1. Variations on the contract or change orders
a. Changes in the specifications or design
b. Changes in the scope of the work
c. Changes in the duration of the contract
d. Renegotiations on the originally agreed contract price
2. Cost escalations (cost de-escalation)
3. Incentive payments - Included in contract revenue when:
a. The contract is sufficiently advanced that it is probable that the specified performance
standards will be met or exceeded; and
b. The amount of the incentive payment can be measured reliably.
4. Claims for reimbursements on the contracts – included in the contract revenue when:
a. Negotiations have reached an advanced stage such that it is probable that the customer will
accept the claim; and
b. The amount that is probable will be accepted by the customer & can be measured reliably.

1
IV. Contract Costs

Contract costs should comprise:


a. Costs that relate directly to the specific contract;
b. Costs that are attributable to the contract activity in general and can be allocated to the contract
(allocated based on the normal level of construction activity); and
c. Such other costs as are specifically chargeable to the customer under the terms of the contract.

Costs that cannot be attributed to contract activity or cannot be allocated to a contract are excluded from
the costs of a construction contract. Such costs include:
a. General administration costs for which reimbursement is not specified in the contract;
b. Selling costs;
c. Research and development costs for which reimbursement is not specified in the contract; and
d. Depreciation of idle plant and equipment that is not used on a particular contract.

V. Method of construction accounting

A. Percentage of Completion Method

If the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, construction revenue and related
contract costs shall be recognized by reference to the stage-of-completion of the contract activity at the end
of the reporting period.

Methods of measuring the percentage of completion


a. Input measures – made in relation to the costs of efforts devoted to a contract. They are based on an
established or assumed relationship between a unit of input and productivity.
a. Cost to cost method – The proportion that contract costs incurred for work performed to
date bear to the estimated total contract costs (costs incurred to date divided by the total
contract costs).
b. Efforts-expended method – based on surveys of work performed to date (i.e. direct labor
hours)
b. Output measures – Output measures are made in terms of results achieved. This is based on the
completion of a physical proportion of the contract work. Architects and engineers are sometimes
asked to evaluate jobs and estimate what percentage of a job is complete.

B. Cost recovery method / Hybrid / Zero profit approach

When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably:


a. Revenue should be recognized only to the extent of contract costs incurred that is probable
will be recoverable; and
b. Contract costs should be recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

VI. Formulas to remember

a. Percentage of completion Method

Contract Price xx Costs Incurred to Date xx


Less: Total Estimated Costs* xx Add: Estimated Costs to complete xx
Estimated Gross Profit xx Total Estimated Costs* xx
Multiplied by: Percentage of Completion** xx
Recognized Gross Profit to Date xx Percentage of Completion*
Less: Recognized Gross Profit in Prior Years xx Costs incurred to date
Recognized Gross Profit in Each Year xx Estimated Costs to Complete

2
Construction in Progress
= Costs incurred to date + Recognized Profit to Date
or = Contract Price x Percentage of Completion to date

Contract Revenue
= Costs incurred for the period + Recognized Gross Profit in each year
= Contract Price x Percentage of work completed during the period

b. Zero profit method

Construction in Progress = Costs incurred to date only


Construction Revenue = Cost incurred for the period only
*Note: Recognized revenue is equal to costs incurred for the period hence, recognized profit in each
year is equal to zero.

VII. Recognition of Expected or Anticipated Losses

When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss should be
recognized as an expense immediately in both percentage of completion and zero profit method.

VIII. Changes in Estimates

The percentage of completion method is applied on a cumulative basis in each accounting period to the
current estimates of contract revenue and contract costs. Therefore, the effect of a change in the estimate of
contract revenue or contract costs, or the effect of a change in estimate of the outcome of a contract, is
accounted for as a change in accounting estimate (PAS 8, Accounting Changes). The changed estimates are
used in the determination of the amount of revenue and expenses recognized in the income statement in
the period in which the change is made and in subsequent periods (prospective application).

IX. Contract Retentions

Retentions are amounts of progress billings which are not paid until the satisfaction of conditions specified
in the contract for the payment of such amounts or until defects have been rectified. Progress billings are
amounts billed for work performed on a contract whether or not they have been paid by the customer.
Advances are amounts received by the contractor before the related work is performed.

X. Financial Statements Presentation

a. The gross amounts due from customers for contract work as an asset; and
b. The gross amounts due to customers for contract work as a liability.
