Worksheet

Estimate versus actual variance sheet

A single worksheet gives each finished job its own row and each cost line its own column. The columns are stock, make-ready sheets, run spoilage, finishing hours, outside supplier, delivery and total. Each column holds estimate, actual and difference. A last column names the main cause, such as loose register, substitute stock or supplier surcharge.

Name: ______________________   Business: ______________________   Date: ______________

Scroll the table sideways to see every column.

Cross out or rewrite any heading that does not fit your business. From the guide “Why print estimates and actual job costs never match”, www.gullysystem.com/blog/why-print-estimates-and-actual-job-costs-never-match
