    c. $64 million

    Explanation:

    For computing the revenue recognized, first we have to determine the percentage which is shown below:

    = Cost incurred in 2014 : expenses incurred

    = $48 million : $120 million

    = 40%

    And, the contract price is $160 million

    So, the revenue recognized would be

    = Contract price * percentage

    = $160 million * 40%

    = $64 million
