Variable Costing vs Absorption Costing (Accounting)

The video tutorial explains variable costing, a method focusing on variable production costs as product costs. It highlights the importance of separating variable and fixed costs for CVP analysis, particularly in Managulia County. The tutorial contrasts variable costing with absorption costing, which includes all production costs as product costs, aligning with GAAP but not ideal for CVP analysis.
