Report Number Sources

Problem

Reports, values or amounts used in Income and Cost
confusion about Income and cost reports in Goldenseal accounting software

Diagnosis

1) Income reports use:
Total Cost from Other Costs and Subcontractor Costs; T&M Amount from Equipment Hours; Total Wages from Labor Hours; and Net Price from Material Purchases.
2) Cost reports use:
Net Price from Material Purchases and Other Costs; and Job Cost Amount from Subcontractor Costs, Labour Hours, and Equipment Hours.

These reports do not use the actual amount paid on the cost transactions.
An exception to #2 is Expenses>Cost By Category: uses the Gross from Labor Hours and the Total from Subcontractor Costs (1.07 and earlier), w/1.08 on this report is gone.

Solution

Note that the amounts used in the reports have no modifiers such as Discounts, Finance charges, or Late Fees, but may have adjustments for burden, overhead, etc.
Also note that Job Cost and T&M Amounts based on 'net plus' rates change when the transaction is billed or paid.
