Accounting

Case Construction Company, a three-year-old business, provides contracting and construction services to a variety of clients. Given that each construction job is different from the others, Susan Byrd, the companys accountant, decided to use a job-order costing system to allocate costs to the different jobs.

Direct materials $ 14,560,000
Construction labour $ 10,200,000
Overhead $ 7,900,000
Construction labour-hours 500,000
Byrd recorded the following for the second quarter of 2022 for the three jobs that the company started and completed during the quarter.
