What is absorption costing
A system that attempts to determine a full cost for each unit of output. It includes both both direct and indirect costs
What is marginal costing
A costing system categorises costs according to their cost behaviour and then divides them into Variable and fixed costs
What is activity based costing
Similar to absorption costing but deals mainly with the indirect costs.
Involves examining the costs to determine what causes them and using this info to charge the costs to the units of output.
