Cost
In economics, business, and accounting, a cost is the value of money that
has been used up to produce something, and hence is not available for use
anymore. In business, the cost may be one of acquisition, in which case the
amount of money expended to acquire it is counted as cost. In this case,
money is the input that is gone in order to acquire the thing. This
acquisition cost may be the sum of the cost of production as incurred by the
original producer, and further costs of transaction as incurred by the
acquirer over and above the price paid to the producer. Usually, the price
also includes a mark-up for profit over the cost of production.
Costs are often further described based on their timing or their
applicability.
