[1] Costs incurred in excess of costs recognized (assets) and costs recognized in excess of costs incurred (liabilities) resulted from the exclusion of certain costs when measuring progress toward completion under the cost-to-cost method, prior to our adoption of ASC Topic 606. These remaining amounts will be recognized in Cost of operations as the underlying projects progress.

Revenues recognized for the nine-months periods ended September 30, 2018 with respect to amounts included in our contract liability balance as of December 31, 2017 were $45 million, realized during the first half of 2018.
