Answer:loss of $192,000

Explanation:

Fixed Price = $2,290,000

Cost Incurred=

2017=$262,000

2018=$1,660,000

2019 = $510,000

Estimated Cost to Complete=

2017 = $1,610,000

2018 = $560,000

2019=0

In 2018;

first we add cost incurred from 2017 to 2018 to the estimated cost to complete for only 2018 giving us

$262,000 + $1,660,000 + $ 560,000 = $2,482,000

and then subtract it from fixed price;

$2,290,000 - $2,482,000 = - $192,000

ie $ (192,000) gross loss.
