    This is just from my notes I have saved on Evernote, I don't know how much it'll help, but I tried =]

    Completed Contract or Percentage of Completion (GAAP)

    Completed Contract – no income is recognized until the contract is complete.

    Percentage of Completion

    Contract Price

    – Actual cost to complete (cumulative)

    – Estimated costs to complete

    Estimated Total Cost

    Contract Price – Estimated total cost = Est. income

    (actual cost to date / est. total costs to complete) x Est. total income – income recognized to date

    Apportionment of total income (based on ratio of costs incurred to date to estimated total construction):

    1. (350,000/1,350,000) x 150,000 = 38,889

    2. (900,000/1,360,000) x 140,000 = 92,647

    -38,889

    $53,758

    3. Total income to be recognized (actual) 135,000

    Less: income recognized to date -92,647

    $42,353

    The indentions on the JE didn't show up like they should, but the first ones are always debit.
