Revenue Recognition over time based on costs:

Total estimated cost = $435,000 ($290,000 + 145,000)

Revenue in the 1st year = ($290,000/435,000 * $525,000) = $350,000

Revenue in the 2nd year = $175,000 ($525,000 - $350,000)

Revenue Recognition at point in time when control is transferred:

Revenue in the 1st year = $0

Revenue in the 2nd year = $525,000
