Question

On January 1, 2017, Build Company entered into a construction contract with
an owner to build an oil refinery. The contract has the following
characteristics; the oil refinery is highly customized to the owner’s
specifications and changes to these specifications by the owner are expected
over the contract term. The oil refinery does not have an alternative use to
the contractor. Non-refundable, interim progress payments are required as a
mechanism to finance the contract. The owner can cancel the contract at any
time (with a termination penalty); any work in process is the property of the
owner. As a result, another entity would not need to re-perform the tasks
performed to date. Physical possession and title do not pass until
completion of the contract. The contractor determines that the contract has
a single performance obligation to build the refinery. The majority of
evidences suggests that the contractor’s performance creates an assets that
the customer controls and control is being transferred over time. Build
concludes that input method (cost to cost method) instead of output method is
a more reasonable method for measuring the progress toward satisfying its
performance obligation.
The contract duration is 3 years with total estimated contract revenue of
P300M. The total estimated contract cost as of December 31, 2017 is P200M.
The cost incurred during year 2017 as 120M including P20M related to
contractor-caused inefficiencies which do not represent/depict the transfer
of goods or services to the customer. As of December 31, 2018, the total
estimated contract cost becomes 250M due to increase in cost of raw
materials. The cost incurred during 2018 is P105M including P5M related to
contractor-caused inefficiencies which do not represent/depict the transfer
of goods or services to the customer.

Under IFRS 15, what is the net income/(loss) to be reported by the company for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018?
