FAQ
- How do I write a line?
- A name, then the amount, such as Framing, 2400. One cost a line.
- Is the margin markup or margin?
- It is a percent added on top of cost. 15% of $4,800 is added to the cost. It is not 15% of the final price.
- Can I include labour and materials together?
- Yes. The line is just a name and an amount. Split them if you want to see them separately.
