The gross profit recognized in 2020 would be $33,156

Explanation:

In order to calculate the Computation of Gross profit to be recognised in year 2020 we would need to calculate first the Percentage of completion as follows:

Percentage of completion = Cost incurred in 2020 / Total cost

Total cost = Cost incurred + estimated cost

= $180,000 + $200,000 = $380,000

Percentage of completion = $180,000 / $380,000 = 47.368%

Revenue to be recognised in year 2020 = contract revenue * percentage of completion

= $450,000*47.368% = $213,156

Therefore, Gross profit = Revenue - Cost

Gross profit = $213,156 - $180,000 = $33,156

The gross profit recognized in 2020 would be $33,156
