Revisions in the estimated gross profits on contracts and contract amounts are made in the period in which circumstances requiring the revisions become known. This increase in gross profit is primarily the result of change orders received of approximately $1,641,000 from the Cooper Project, for costs that were incurred in the prior fiscal year. Although management believes it has established adequate procedures for estimating costs to complete on open contracts, it is at least reasonably possible that additional significant costs could occur on contracts prior to completion.
