Calculation of Percentage Complete

For projects using a percentage complete method, the first step in billing calculation or revenue recognition is to determine the percentage complete. This percentage is then used to calculate the revenue or billing amounts.

The program calculates the percentage complete as of the specified cutoff date or fiscal year and period using a cost-to-cost basis that is consistent with the particular accounting method.
