FAQ
Construction Accountants in Illinois
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.
