Costs and Estimated Earnings on Uncompleted Contracts |
4. | Costs and Estimated Earnings on Uncompleted Contracts
Our contracts have various lengths to completion ranging from a few days to several months. We anticipate that a majority of our current contracts will be completed within the next twelve months. A significant amount of our revenue within the Energy Solutions and Industrial Solutions segments is recognized over a period of time as we perform under the contract because control of the work in process transfers continuously to the customer. The assets and liabilities recognized in association with these contracts are as follows:
