| | Cost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Social costs are the sum of private costs and external costs, that is, both the costs internal to the firm's production function and external costs not included in the firm's production function. | | | Its private costs are the costs that the buyer of a good or service pays the seller. | | | Opportunity cost, also referred to as economic cost is the value of the best alternative that was not chosen in order to pursue the current endeavour--i.e., what could have been accomplished with the resources expended in the undertaking. |

| | Cost and Production |
| | Accounting cost measures are used in the evaluation of managerial performance (usually together with information on income) and as a basis for economic cost estimation. | | | You should ignore costs that will not vary as a result of your decision; you should include all costs that will vary as a result of your decision. | | | Nevertheless, where economists and accountants are concerned, there is a second and equally critical source of confusion about costs: economists and accountants use the term "cost" to mean different although related things. |

| | Cost estimators |
| | Cost estimators develop the cost information that business owners or managers need to make a bid for a contract or to decide whether a proposed new product will be profitable. | | | Construction cost estimators also may be employed by the project’s architect or owner to estimate costs or to track actual costs relative to bid specifications as the project develops. | | | The estimator then compares the cost of purchasing parts with the firm’s cost of manufacturing them to determine which is cheaper. |

| | WBDG: Cost—Effective |
| | Once a budget has been established, it is essential to continually test the viability of its assumptions by employing cost management throughout the design and development process. | | | These cost-effectiveness principles serve as driving objectives for cost management practices in the planning, design, construction, and operation of facilities that balance cost, scope, and quality. | | | The methodologies of life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) will typically offer comparisons of total life-cycle costs based upon net present values. |

| | FactCheck.org Kerry Exaggerates Cost of War in Iraq |
| | Strictly speaking, the war itself -- just the military operations -- has cost less than half of what Kerry says as of the end of this month (which is also the end of the current fiscal year, FY 2004) according to the Congressional Budget Office. | | | However, that figure is too low because it doesn't count the cost of reconstructing Iraq, which should be included in any accounting of the total cost of the war. | | | Kerry would be correct to say the cost of the war in Iraq "is now $120 billion and counting." He would be well within the bounds of argument to say "this war will cost $200 billion," by some unspecified date in the future. |
