  2. Variable cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_cost

    The main variable cost will be materials and any energy costs actually used in production. However, over a six-month horizon, the factory will be better able to change the amount of labor to fit the desired output, either by using overtime hours, laying off employees, or hiring new employees.

  3. Average variable cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average_variable_cost

    In economics, average variable cost (AVC) is a firm's variable costs (VC; labour, electricity, etc.) divided by the quantity of output produced (Q): = Average variable cost plus average fixed cost equals average total cost (ATC): A V C + A F C = A T C . {\displaystyle AVC+AFC=ATC.}

  4. Operating cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_cost

    variable costs, which may increase depending on whether more production is done, and how it is done (producing 100 items of product might require 10 days of normal time or take 7 days if overtime is used. It may be more or less expensive to use overtime production depending on whether faster production means the product can be more profitable).

  5. Cost curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_curve

    Average variable cost (AVC/SRAVC) (which is a short-run concept) is the variable cost (typically labor cost) per unit of output: SRAVC = wL / Q where w is the wage rate, L is the quantity of labor used, and Q is the quantity of output produced. The SRAVC curve plots the short-run average variable cost against the level of output and is ...

  6. Total cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_cost

    The marginal cost can also be calculated by finding the derivative of total cost or variable cost. Either of these derivatives work because the total cost includes variable cost and fixed cost, but fixed cost is a constant with a derivative of 0. The total cost of producing a specific level of output is the cost of all the factors of production.

  7. Pricing strategies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pricing_strategies

    This pricing method aims to recover all the costs of producing a product. The price of a product includes the variable cost of each item plus a proportionate amount of the fixed costs: Unit Variable Costs + (Overhead + Managing Costs) ÷ Number of units produced = Absorption Price. Fixed or variable costs, direct or indirect costs, employee ...

  8. Cost–volume–profit analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost–volume–profit...

    CVP is a short run, marginal analysis: it assumes that unit variable costs and unit revenues are constant, which is appropriate for small deviations from current production and sales, and assumes a neat division between fixed costs and variable costs, though in the long run all costs are variable.

  9. Profit model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_model

    Notice that w (average unit production cost) includes the fixed and variable costs. The square brackets contain the cost of goods sold, wq not cost of good made wx where x = cost of good sold. To show cost of good sold, the opening and closing finished goods stocks need to be included The profit model would then be:
