Marginal Costing Introduction The Cost of a product of comprises of materials‚ labour‚ and over heads. On the basis of variability they can be broadly classified as fixed and variable costs. Fixed costs are those costs which remain constant at all levels of production within a given period of time. In other words‚ a cost that does not change in total but become. Progressively smaller per unit when the volume of production increases is known as fixed cost. it is also called period cost eg. Rent

Profit will increase if TR increases and TC decreases. If company wants profit maximization‚ it

Marginal Costing is ascertainment of the marginal cost which varies directly with the volume of production by differentiating between fixed costs and variable costs andfinally ascertaining its effect on profit. The basic assumptions made by marginal costing are following: - Total variable cost is directly proportion to the level of activity. However‚ variable cost per unit remains constant at all the levels of activities. - Per unit selling price remains constant at all levels of activities. -

Marginal Concept Some land might be very good for producing certain crops - rich in nutrients and easy to access and work. This land is likely to be used first for any cultivation because the relationship between the cost of producing the crop and the return gained from selling it will be highest. However‚ land that is not so good will be taken into cultivation if certain conditions allow. These conditions could be a rise in the price of the crop concerned or a means of either reducing the cost
