Estimate Summation

Summation

The Summation is a one-page report of construction costs for a project. It shows labor, material and subcontractor costs for each construction category. It also lists 'soft costs' such as overhead, contingencies, profit, and finance charges.

Use the Summation level for:
* Viewing and printing the 'bottom line' when the bid is complete.
* Watching the bid total change while you change specifications or dimensions.
* The raw data for most reports.

To go to the Summation level:
1. Choose *Summation from the MACNAIL menu.
2. This moves you to the top of the worksheet in the MacNail construction estimating software.
