Revenue recognition in construction companies is complex due to the long-term nature of projects and the need to accurately match revenue with the stage of completion. Two methods are used: percentage of completion and completed contract. ABC Construction uses the percentage of completion method, recognizing revenue based on the proportion of work completed to date. XYZ Construction uses the completed contract method, recognizing revenue only upon contract completion. Accurate estimation of costs, progress assessment, and compliance with accounting standards are crucial considerations.
