Answer:

When they record the sales revenue related to this special order.

Explanation:

The matching principle of accounting states that you must record revenue and all related COGS at the same time, i.e. when Jamison Engineering records sales revenue, they also must record COGS associated to the sales. Accrual accounting establishes that you cannot record COGS at a prior or later date.
