Cost analysis
Types of cost
Short run cost
Long run cost
Cost concepts
Accounting cost and Economics cost
Outlay costs & Opportunity costs
Direct or traceable costs & Indirect or non- traceable cost
Fixed & variable cost
Accounting Cost vs Economics Cost
Accounting cost (Explicit cost)
Salary paid to workers , Rent paid
Cash outflow
Implicit cost
Owner {Capital Invested + Self time invested}
No cash outflow
Economic cost = Accounting cost + Implicit cost
Economics Profit = Revenue- Economics cost .
Accounting Profit vs Economics Profit
Outlay cost vs opportunity cost
Outlay cost= expenditure of funds. recorded in books.
Opportunity cost = cost of forgone opportunity.Not recorded in books.
Example- Cost of education
Direct vs Indirect Cost
Direct or traceable cost
traceable with product
Ex-Raw Material , direct wages
Indirect or non-traceable cost
Not traceable with product
Ex- Office Rent, Marketing expense, Travel bills
Fixed vs Variable cost
Fixed or constant cost
Vary not with output but capacity level.
Unavoidable
programed fixed cost
Ex- Rent,Interest on loan
Variable cost
vary with output
Ex-Raw material, wages etc
Short run cost
Variable cost = can be changed with output.
dependent on output
Ex-direct labour, raw material
variable cost is fixed per unit
Fixed cost = cannot be changed with output
independent of output
Ex- Rent,Salary to manager
Semi variable cost
Fixed cost is variable per unit
Longrun cost
All the factors can be changed
Select the plant size for given output for minimum cost
Short run curve - plant curve
Long run curve- planning curve
