Answer:

The appropriated answer will be "$1,700,000".

Explanation:

Revenue understood by completion percentage = Design balance throughout progress = $200,000

The percentage completion throughout the whole year will be:

⇒  [tex]\frac{200,000}{2,000,000 }[/tex]

⇒  [tex]10 \ percent[/tex]

The cost incurred throughout the whole year will be:

⇒  [tex]Revenue \ recognized - Income \ on \ the \ contract[/tex]

⇒  [tex]200,000 - 30,000[/tex]

⇒  [tex]170,000[/tex] ($)

Now,

The total estimated cost of the project at the end the year 2021 will be:

⇒  [tex]\frac{170,000}{10 \ percent}[/tex]

⇒  [tex]1,700,000[/tex] ($)
