    2018: $78 million

    2019: $468 million

    2020: $234 million

    Explanation:

    Given that State Construction incurred costs as follows:

    Year Cost

    2018 $60 million

    2019 $360 million

    2020 $180 million

    Total cost = $60 million + $360 million + $180 million = $600 million

    Percentage to total cost ratio is:

    For 2018 = $60 million / $600 million = 0.1,

    For 2019 = $360 million / $600 million = 0.6,

    For 2020 = $180 million / $600 million = 0.3.

    Revenue = Percentage to total cost ratio * Contract price.

    Contract price = $780 million

    For 2018, Revenue = 0.1 * $780 million = $78 million

    For 2019, Revenue = 0.6 * $780 million = $468 million

    For 2020, Revenue = 0.3 * $780 million = $234 million
