The asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts”, represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts”, represents billings in excess of revenue recognized. Costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts consist of the following at October 31, 2015 and April 30, 2015:
Revisions in the estimated gross profits on contracts and contract amounts are made in the period in which circumstances requiring the revisions become known.
