Thank you Melissa, this is very informative! I have a question regarding the percent complete revenue recognition for the company over $25M/year. The company has a mixture of sales: sales from construction is 40% of all. Should the company still consider percent complete method? Can you share with some guidance or resources regarding this matter please? Thank you!!!

For the construction part of the business, we recommend using the percent complete method. You can use the Work in Progress schedule to convert to percent complete. If you haven't done one before, you might like our WIP Creation Course here: www.atlascfoallaccess.com/WIP
