    The answer is: $100,000

    Explanation:

    If Hansen Construction spent $930,000 in year 1 of the contract and estimates it still needs $2,170,000 to complete the contract, their total cost for the contract is $3,100,000. Since the contract is fixed price at $3,000,000, then Hansen is going to lose $100,000 with it.

    Hansen should recognize the whole $100,000 loss in year 1 as soon as it is able to estimate it.
