Can you please confirm if the correct answer is choice C?
The calculation is as follows:
2007:
20% is completed and the estimated total cost at completion is: 4,500,000.
20%*4,500,000 = 900,000 costs incurred in 2007
2008:
60% is completed and the estimated total cost at completion is: 4,800,000.
60%*4,800,000 = 2,880,000 of total costs incurred so far.
But you already recorded 900,000 in the previous year.
2,880,000 - 900,000 = 1,980,000 costs incurred in 2008

Actual cost incurred up to Dec 31,2007:
4,500,000*20% = 900,000
Actual cost incurred up to Dec 31,2008:
4,800,000*60%= 2,880,000
Actual cost incurred in year of 2008 =
2,880,000 - 900,000 = 1,980,000
So the answer is C.
