Asset Disposition

The release of the September 2013 IRS tangible property regulations (TD9636) under Sections 162(a) 263(a) has changed the manner in which the residual basis of existing assets is handled following removal on a remodeling project.

Construction Cost Control

One of the more difficult tasks we encounter with cost segregation studies is determining and reconciling the total cost of the facility whose cost we are trying to distribute.

How to control cost in construction projects? – Learn with Lindon Engineering

construction cost controlThe construction projects are anyway hard to handle. During the execution of such construction project, the record keeping becomes indispensable tools to managers and other participants in the construction process. The tools serve the dual purpose of recording the financial transactions that occur and giving managers an indication of the progress and problems associated with a project. The problems that occur during construction cost are:
  • Utilization of resources
  • Accounting issues
  • Monitoring process
  • Cost control process
The interpretation of project accounts is unclear until and unless the project is finished completely and thoroughly. Once it comes to end, it may be difficult to influence the project. Even after the completion of a project, the accounting results may be confusing, which is why managers need to know how to interpret accounting information for the purpose of project management. Also during the cost control management, the following are the problems occurred:
  • The personnel are inadequately trained due to which the chances of errors increase and one needs to recruit a person who could rectify the errors.
  • One may be unaware of the construction process, let alone talk about the cost associated with it and controlling it.
  • The important thing about controlling cost with construction is an accountant. If the accountants are overworked, they are unable to get the work done with quality and dedication.
  • Apart from there are minor setbacks such as missing invoices, incomplete or erroneous cost descriptions, arithmetically inaccurate totals or simply insufficient information.
Well, Lindon Engineering has encountered many such situations on numerous projects. They have experienced team of members who has devised a service that addresses these deficiencies and proposes solutions. For that, we need to collect all costs and maintain them in a summary consistent with the engineered sixteen-division format. The Cost Summary that is maintained throughout the construction process will be available for use in the subsequent cost segregation study upon completion of the work. The intent of Lindon engineering’s construction cost control program is to reduce the cost of administrative tasks, provide accurate and organized construction cost data and shorten the time to complete post-construction analysis.
