changes.
 Total fixed costs remain unchanged when
activity changes.

Opportunity Costs
Example: If you were not attending college,
you could be earning $30,000 per year. Your
opportunity cost of attending college for one
year is $30,000.

2-46
Out-of-Pocket Costs
 Those costs that require the payment of
cash or other assets as a result of its
incurrence.
 These costs should be considered when
making decisions.
© MCGRAW HILL LLC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. NO REPRODUCTION OR DISTR IBUTION WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF MCGRAW HILL LLC.
2-47
Sunk Costs
All costs incurred in the past that cannot be
changed by any decision made now or in the future
are sunk costs.
Sunk costs should NOT be considered in decisions.
 Example: You bought an automobile that cost
$22,000 two years ago. The $22,000 cost is sunk
because whether you drive it, park it, trade it, or sell
it, you cannot change the $22,000 cost.

2-48
Differential Costs
Costs that differ between alternatives.
Example: You can earn $1,500 per month in your
hometown or $2,000 per month in a nearby city.
Your commuting costs are $50 per month in your
hometown and $300 per month to the city.
What is your differential cost?
$300 – $50 = $250

2-49
Marginal Costs and Average Costs
The extra cost
incurred to produce
one additional unit.
The total cost to
produce a quantity
divided by the
quantity produced.
Marginal and average costs are
largely a function of cost behavior
– variable and fixed costs.
