Supplier Corp. enters into a government contract during the year to provide computer equipment for $4,400,000. The contract consists of a single performance obligation to provide specified equipment in three years. Total costs estimated by Supplier Corp. for the contract are $3,080,000. The equipment is highly specialized and has no alternative uses. As negotiated in the contract, any costs incurred by Supplier Corp. plus a specified profit margin will be paid to Supplier Corp. in the event of a contract cancellation. Actual costs incurred during the first year of the contract were $1,408,000 including unexpected cost overruns of $176,000 due to labor inefficiencies.
