Question
Buildinghomesforlife was engaged by a wealthy individual 6 months ago to build a large mansion in Brighton. The contracted price to build the home is 600,000.As at 30 June 2022, Material costs have however unexpectedly increase by 50% since the contracts were drafted. Buildinghomesforlife had incurred the following costs:Labour costs: 150,000 Required:What amount of revenue would Buildinghomesforlife have recognised using the input method as at 30 June 2022?Group of answer choices350,000$583,333
Solution
The input method recognizes revenue on the basis of the entity’s efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance obligation (for example, resources consumed, labor hours expended, costs incurred, time elapsed or machine hours used) relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of that performance obligation.
In this case, Buildinghomesforlife has incurred costs of 150,000 (materials) = $350,000 so far.
The original estimated total cost was 300,000 each), the new total estimated cost would be 300,000 * 1.5 (increased material costs) = $750,000.
The proportion of work completed, therefore, is 750,000 (new total estimated cost) = 0.4667 or 46.67%.
Therefore, the amount of revenue Buildinghomesforlife would have recognised using the input method as at 30 June 2022 is 46.67% * 466,670.
However, none of the provided answer choices match this calculation. Therefore, the correct answer would be "Unable to be calculated with the information provided".
