Marginal Costing Marginal cost is the increase in the total cost when the total quantity produced increases by one unit. That is‚ it is the cost of producing one more unit of a good. Generally‚ marginal cost at each level of production is the additional costs required to produce the next unit. For example‚ if producing additional computers requires building a new factory‚ the marginal cost of the extra computers includes the cost of the new factory. In practice‚ this analysis is divided into

Absorption Costing Absorption costing is a method of costing that assigns a small percentage of production and overheads costs to the price of each product that is going to be sold. It accounts for all costs‚ direct and indirect‚ fixed and variable. For example; if 1000 products are made and the total costs are £10000 then each product would cost £10 before making a profit (10000/1000=10). Variable costs are costs that can be controlled by management or a sales worker. Whereas fixed costs are

Standard costing values its manufactured products with a predetermined materials cost‚ a predetermined direct labor cost‚ and a predetermined manufacturing overhead cost. These standard
