    okay so I understand the concept of percentage of completion.. you recognize revenue as the work is completed based on costs incurred and total expected costs.

    When doing a JE for the Sim, I am confused about the Construction in Progress entry. is it essentially a plug figure?

    Parthamis Prime

    AUD - 73, 75... and done.

    FAR - 80 (UNBELIEVABLE)

    BEC - 78

    REG - 81

    The CIP Account also gets the percentage of gross profit that is recognized for a particular year. Assuming no contract losses.

    Journal Entry

    CIP (gross profit) XX
    Costs of Construction XX
    Revenue from Long term Construction Contracts XX

    Hope that helps
