#2: How to Locate and Charge for Lost or Invisible Costs
- If you DON’T job-cost, it’s easy to miss various Time and Materials (T&M) costs that accumulate on a job.
- Even when you charge a fixed price for your projects, you may very well encounter Change Orders as a job progresses.
- If you’re job costing, many software programs (such as QuickBooks desktop) will help you easily convert job costs into Invoices.
- If you fail to invoice your customer because you don’t see the costs related to each job, you’re losing:
