Cost: is the amount of cash or cash equivalent sacri ced for goods and/or services that are expected to bring a current or future bene t to the organization. Expenses: as costs are used up in the production of revenues, they are said to expire and expired costs are expenses. For a company to remain viable, revenues must be greater than expenses. Accumulating costs: the way that costs are measured and recorded. Assigning costs: the way that a cost is linked to some object. Assigning costs tells the company why the money was spent. Cost object: is any item such as a product, service, customer, department, project, geographic region, plant, and so on, for which costs are measured and assigned.
