- It is an application of the accrual assumption.
- This method is used when the outcome of the

contract revenue and contract costs associated
with the construction contract should be
recognized as revenue and expenses,
respectively, by reference the stage of

- This approach avoids mismatch between costs

revenue only being recognized when the
