Ask your accountant what they recommended about your accounting method for long-term contracts.
Then listen to the pause.
Most contactors under the revenue threshold have a real choice about how they recognize contract income. Completed contract, percentage of completion, cash, accrual. The choice moves when income lands, sometimes by a full year.
It is worth more than every deduction conversation combined, and it recurs every single year.
If nobody has raised it with you, that is not because your accountant is bad. It's because contract accounting is a specialty and most firms do not carry it.
Here is the part that matters. "I like my accountant" and "my accountant is producing results for me" are two different statements. The first on is about the relationship. The second one is about what showed up this year.
You can like someone and still be leaving the method question on the table.
So ask them. What did you recommend about my method for long-term contracts, and why?
If you get an answer, good. That is one less thing to worry about. If you get a pause, you learned something.
Contractors: has anyone ever brough this up with you?

The first thing your underwriter reads is not the P&L.
It's the WIP schedule, and specifically three columns: cost to complete, over and under billings, and whether percent complete moved in a direction that makes sense since last quarter.
The P&L tells them what already happened. The WIP tells them whether the contractor knows what is happening right now. Those are different questions and only one of them predicts a claim.
Which is why the annual reconstruction is such a hard submission to defend. A schedule built in Excel over a weekend in February, describing jobs that closed in October, is a historical document. It cannot show fade, because fade only appears when you look at the same contract month over month.
The submissions that move limits are the ones where the schedule is a byproduct of the monthly close instead of a project. The contractor is not producing it for you. He is producing it because he uses it, and you are getting a copy.
Producers, honest question. What is the one item you end up chasing on nearly every submission?
