Keisha Tombert, the bookkeeper for Bramble Consulting, a political consulting firm, has recently completed a managerial accounting course at her local college. One of the topics covered in the course was the cost of goods manufactured schedule. Keisha wondered if such a schedule could be prepared for her firm. She realized that, as a service-oriented company, it would have no work in process inventory to consider.

Listed below are the costs her firm incurred for the month ended August 31, 2020.

Supplies used on consulting contracts $2,620
Supplies used in the administrative offices 2,340
Depreciation on equipment used for contract work 910
Depreciation used on administrative office equipment 1,240
Salaries of professionals working on contracts 16,300
Salaries of administrative office personnel 8,470
Janitorial services for professional offices 740
Janitorial services for administrative offices 550
Insurance on contract operations 890
Insurance on administrative operations 950
Utilities for contract operations 2,490
Utilities for administrative offices 1,550
