COSTING AND BUDGETING
INTRODUCTION
TASK 1
...
It can be the material, labor, expense or
distribution cost associated with producing a product
...

INDIRECT COST
It can be defined as an expense unrelated to producing a good or service
...

FIXED COST (FC)
The cost which does not vary with changing output
...
Even if your output changes or you don’t
produce anything, your fixed cost stays the same
...
For example, if you produce more cars, you
have to use more raw materials such as metal
...

Examples:
- Raw materials
- Power used in production
- Wages linked to production
SEMI VARIABLE COST
Labour might be a semi-variable cost
...
However, even if you didn’t produce any cars, you may still
need some workers to look after empty factory
...
If the total cost of 3 units is 1550, and
the total cost of 4 units is 1900
...

OPPORTUNITY COST
It maybe defined as the next best alternative foregone
...

ECONOMIC COST
Economic cost includes both the actual direct costs (accounting costs) plus the opportunity
cost
...
You may lose a weeks pay
£350, plus also have to pay the direct cost of £200
...

ACCOUNTING COST
This is the monetary outlay for producing a certain good
...

SUNK COST
These are costs that have been incurred and cannot be recouped
...
For example, if you spend money on advertising to enter an
industry, you can never claim these costs back
