Arrow construction company entered into a three-year


On February 1, 2016, Arrow Construction Company entered into a three-year construction contract to build a bridge for a price of $8,000,000. During 2016, costs of $2,000,000 were incurred with estimated costs of $4,000,000 yet to be incurred. Billings of $2,500,000 were sent, and cash collected was $2,250,000.

In 2017, costs incurred were $2,500,000 with remaining costs estimated to be $3,600,000. 2017 billings were $2,750,000, and $2,475,000 cash was collected. The project was completed in 2018 after additional costs of $3,800,000 were incurred. The company's fiscal year-end is December 31. Arrow recognizes revenue over time according to percentage of completion.
