What this world needs is an excellent job costing program that tracks hours and dollars by multiple layers of work in a project or multiple projects. Did you ever wonder just how much money was spent on the sheetrock for a building? Now ask how much the cost was to install the sheetrock. How does a company know those answers? The answer is simple: the construction company budgets the hours and the estimated labor and then compares the budget to the actual numbers. The entire building is planned and built on budgets and its numbers must be compared to the actual amounts.
And if you thought the material was expensive, you ought to see the cost of labor.
Ask some of the big payroll processing companies if they can provide job level costing down to 12 levels of work. They can’t but Plus & Minus can! It can do the payroll for Union payrolls and Certified payrolls in case you are working on a federal program. And to add spice to that already delicious meal, Plus & Minus will put the job costing for all those categories right into your general ledger, along with the payroll tax expenses. Hee-haw! We have just eliminated how many manual procedures in the accounting/payroll departments?
