Common questions

About construction accountants

What is percentage-of-completion accounting?+

A revenue-recognition method where revenue and profit are recognized as a project progresses, based on costs incurred vs total estimated costs. Required for long-term contracts under certain thresholds.

Do I need a construction-specialized CPA for bonding?+

Sureties require audited or reviewed financials prepared by a CPA familiar with construction. A generalist CPA may miss WIP schedules, underbillings, and job-level profit fade that underwriters scrutinize.

This information is general and does not constitute professional advice. Consult a licensed professional for guidance specific to your situation.
