Various Types of Costs

• Fixed Costs – do not change with variations in production output or volume, i.e. property insurance, real estate taxes, landscape maintenance, housekeeping, and salaries of department managers.

• Variable Costs – tend to change with output. Direct material, direct labor, and operating supplies are examples.

• Direct Costs—are assigned or can be traced to a specific process, product, or project. Examples are materials or equipment that become part of an installation. Operating and project personnel assigned to a project or service may be considered as direct costs.

Types of Costs

• Indirect Costs – are not directly assignable or cannot be clearly traced to the end product, project process, or service. Indirect costs may include certain types of insurance, property taxes, mortgages and lease costs, and maintenance.

• Sunk Costs – are costs which are committed and cannot be recovered.

• Opportunity costs – represent the alternative investment opportunities that are foregone because available funds have been allocated to something else.

Q: University Hospital saved $500.00 in utility costs in 4 weeks. At the same rate, how much will UH save in 6 weeks?

Set up:Dollars = dollars or 500 = x time time 4 6

Cross multiply: 6x = 500 x 6 6x = 3000 x = 750

Page 161: 1 Facilities Management Best Practices Version I Shortcut.

161

A: The energy savings for 6 weeks is $750.00

To get the answer Cross multiply 6 x 500 = 3000; divide 3000 by 4 to get $750.00. To check your answer multiply 750 by 4 and you get 3000, the same answer you get by multiplying 6 x 500.

Set up:Dollars = dollars or 500 = x time time 4 6

163

A: 150 x $4.50 per sq yd = $675.00

Solution: Find the area then the cost

1.5 x 100 = 150 sq yd

150 sq yd x $4.50 = $675

1 sq ft = 12 x12 = 144 sq in
