tukikustannuksiin

Tukikustannukset, or support costs, refer to the expenses incurred by an organization to maintain and operate its facilities, equipment, and infrastructure. These costs are essential for ensuring the smooth functioning of the organization and are typically categorized into several types. Fixed support costs are those that remain constant regardless of the level of production or activity, such as rent, insurance, and maintenance. Variable support costs, on the other hand, fluctuate with the level of production or activity, like utilities and minor repairs. Allocating support costs accurately is crucial for financial reporting and decision-making. Methods for allocating these costs include direct allocation, where costs are assigned based on direct usage, and indirect allocation, where costs are distributed based on factors like space, time, or activity. Effective management of tukikustannukset ensures that resources are utilized efficiently and that the organization can maintain its operational capabilities.
