Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the key audit
matter
Recognition of Unbilled Revenue
The company executes long-term civilconstruction contracts where revenue isrecognized using the percentage ofcompletion method as per AS 7 -Construction Contracts. In many cases,project execution progresses ahead of billingmilestones, resulting in unbilled revenuebeing recognized in the financial statements.
Recognition of unbilled revenue involvessignificant management judgement inestimating the stage of completion, totalcontract costs, expected revenue, andforeseeable losses. Errors in theseestimates may lead to materialmisstatements in revenue, profits, or assets.Considering the subjectivity, financialsignificance, and the risk of revenuerecognition errors, this area was identified asa key audit matter.
Our audit included, but was not limited to,the following procedures:
a) Obtaining an understanding of thecompany’s process for recognizing revenueand unbilled revenue under AS 7;
b) Reviewing a sample of project contractsto evaluate the nature of work, billing terms,and the method adopted for revenuerecognition;
c) Testing management's estimate ofpercentage of completion by comparingactual costs incurred with total estimatedcontract costs and verifying the accuracy ofinputs used;
d) Reviewing cost records, time sheets, workprogress reports, and completion certificatesto validate the recorded progress and costaccumulation;
e) Verifying that unbilled revenue relates towork already performed, is measurablereliably, and corresponds with supportingdocumentation;
f) Evaluating provisions for expected losses
where project costs were likely to exceedrevenue, in line with AS 7 requirements;
g) Reviewing cut-off procedures to ensurerevenue and cost recognition occurred in thecorrect accounting period;
h) ^Assessing the adequacy andappropriateness of disclosures relating tounbilled revenue and construction contractdetails in the financial statements.
Based on the audit procedures performed,we found management’s recognition ofunbilled revenue under AS 7 to bereasonable and appropriately supported.
