Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of job cost accuracy: Job cost accuracy refers to the precision in tracking and allocating costs to specific jobs or projects within a company.

Review the options provided: Analyze each method mentioned in the problem to determine its impact on job cost accuracy.

Evaluate the periodic inventory system: This system tracks inventory periodically rather than continuously, which may not provide detailed cost tracking for individual jobs.

Assess recording all costs as period expenses: This method treats all costs as expenses for a specific period, which does not allocate costs to individual jobs and therefore reduces accuracy.

Analyze the job order costing system with detailed subsidiary ledgers: This system tracks costs for each job individually and uses subsidiary ledgers to provide detailed information, improving job cost accuracy significantly.
