The document discusses marginal costing, which is a technique used to estimate the incremental cost of incremental production. It defines variable costs, semi-variable costs, and fixed costs. It then shows how to calculate key metrics like contribution, break-even point, estimated sales, marginal safety using a marginal costing income statement and the contribution/sales ratio. Formulas for calculating each metric are provided.
