Product Cost
Costs that are necessary and integral part of producing the finished product. These costs don’t become expenses under the matching principles until the finished goods inventory is sold.
Period Cost

Costs that are related to production of an item. They are composite of direct material, direct labour and manufacturing overhead costs.
Commercial Cost
All the costs incurred outside the factory e.g. selling & marketing expenses and also administrative expenses.
Assignable Cost
The costs which are easily allocable to the respective department is called assignable cost.
Common Cost
The cost of operating a facility, operation, activity area or like cost objective that is shared by two or more users.
Process Costing
A costing system in which the cost of a product or service is obtained by using broad averages to assign costs to masses of identical or similar units. The method of allocating costs to products by averaging costs over large number of nearly identical products.
Operation Costing
A hybrid costing system applied to batches of similar product.
Fixed Cost
Costs that remain unchanged in total for a given period.
Variable Cost
