Answer

The below tables provide the requested information for Wright. The revenue forecast from contracts with customers aligns with budgeted settlements and the costs represent the direct costs such as construction costs. However, it should be noted indirect costs (such as selling costs, marketing, financial management, corporate and Board costs, etc.) that are incurred by the Suburban Land Agency are not included, nor any other costs incurred by the Government to support the development.
