Use when job costing a construction or contracting job: committed against actual cost, labour, plant, subcontract and materials allocation, margin by contract, variance to budget, and the cost-to-date and cost-to-complete figures the WIP calculation consumes.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Contract cost tracking

Builds a per-contract cost position from the ledger and the commitment register: what is committed, what is spent, what it will cost to finish, and the margin that falls out. The cost outputs feed `wip-over-under-billing`, so they must be stated per contract in the form set out under Output.

## Inputs needed

1. Contract register: contract sum, approved variations, the transaction price `wip-over-under-billing` has determined where it differs from those 2, and any other contracts with the same customer or its related parties entered into at or near the same time (needed for the AASB 15 para 17 combination test)
2. Commitment register: purchase orders and subcontract orders raised per contract, showing value committed, value certified, invoiced to date, remaining, and retention withheld from each subcontractor
3. Cost ledger by contract and cost category (labour, plant, subcontract, materials, other) for the period and inception to date, materials delivered to site but not yet installed, plus the job-cost control account balance and cost of sales for the period

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ryanduguid/australian-accounting-skills/contract-cost-tracking@sha256:7e8ee6f47caa283f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.6918946, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
