sales revenue for this contract to be recognize in 2018: 150,000

Explanation:

On 2019 the company will recognize revenue based on accrued revenue. It will consider the delivery date of the goods rather than payment.

During 2018 it delivers 50,000 gallons at $ 3 each

In total: 50,000 gallons x $ 3 = 150,000 accrued revenue.
