Explanation:

The is a method of revenue recognition known as cost to completion. It is used to recognize revenue from long term projects which are mostly construction contracts that will not be completed in a year. In this system, the revenue to be recognized is a function of the cost.

As such, where 30% of the total cost of the project is incurred in the first year, 30% of the total revenue will also be recognized in the first year. The difference between the revenue and the cost gives the profit.

Given that total revenue for 3 years is $18168000

Revenue to be recognized

= 30/100 * $18,168,000

= $5,450,400  

Cost incurred

= 30/100 * $17,250,000

= $5,175,000

Profit for 2018

= $5,450,400   - $5,175,000

= $275,400
