﻿Total contract assets |  | $ | 1,547,539 |  | $ | 1,501,470
﻿ Retainage receivables represent amounts invoiced to customers where payments have been withheld pending the completion of certain milestones, other contractual conditions or upon the completion of the project. Retainage agreements vary from project to project and balances could be outstanding for several months or years depending on a number of circumstances such as contract-specific terms, project performance and other variables that may arise as the Company makes progress towards completion. ﻿ Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings represent the excess of contract costs and profits (or contract revenue) over the amount of contract billings to date and are classified as a current asset. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings result when either: 1) the appropriate contract revenue amount has been recognized over time in accordance with ASC 606, but a portion of the revenue recorded cannot be billed currently due to the billing terms defined in the contract, or 2) costs are incurred related to certain claims and unapproved change orders. Claims occur when there is a dispute regarding both a change in the scope of work and the price associated with that change. Unapproved change orders occur when a change in the scope of work results in additional work being performed before the parties have agreed on the corresponding change in the contract price. The Company routinely estimates recovery related to claims and unapproved change orders as a form of variable consideration at the most likely amount it expects to receive and to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Claims and unapproved change orders are billable upon the agreement and resolution between the contractual parties and after the execution of contractual amendments. Increases in claims and unapproved change orders typically result from costs being incurred against existing or new positions; decreases normally result from resolutions and subsequent billings. As discussed in Note 9, Commitments and Contingencies, the resolution of these claims and unapproved change orders may require litigation or other forms of dispute resolution proceedings. Other unbilled costs and profits are billable in accordance with the billing terms of each of the existing contractual arrangements and, as such, the timing of contract billing cycles can cause fluctuations in the balance of unbilled costs and profits. Ultimate resolution of other unbilled costs and profits typically involves incremental progress toward contractual requirements or milestones. The amount of costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings as of March 31, 2018 estimated by management to be collected beyond one year is $465.8 million. ﻿ Capitalized contract costs primarily represent costs to fulfill a contract that (1) directly relate to an existing or anticipated contract, (2) generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future and (3) are expected to be recovered through the contract, and are included in other current assets. Capitalized contract costs are generally expensed to the associated contract over the period of anticipated use on the project. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, $4.1 million of previously capitalized contract costs were amortized and recognized as expense on the related contracts. ﻿ Contract liabilities include amounts owed under retainage provisions and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings. The amount as reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of the following: ﻿ ﻿

﻿ |  |  |  |  |  |

﻿(in thousands) |  | 2018 |  | 2018
﻿Retainage payable |  | $ | 246,033 |  | $ | 261,820
﻿Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings |  |  | 508,616 |  |  | 496,654
﻿Total contract liabilities |  | $ | 754,649 |  | $ | 758,474
﻿ Retainage payables represent amounts invoiced to the Company by subcontractors where payments have been withheld pending the completion of certain milestones, other contractual conditions or upon the completion of the project. Generally, retainage payables are not remitted to subcontractors until the associated retainage receivables from customers are collected. ﻿ Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings represent the excess of contract billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits (or contract revenue) recognized to date. The balance may fluctuate depending on the timing of contract billings and the recognition of contract revenue. The amount of revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2018 that was included in the opening billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings balance was $222.9 million.
