In some cases, any costs of doing business that are not assigned to specific products. The most frequently used type of cost-plus pricing is straight markup pricing. The price is calculated by adding a predetermined percentage to the cost. Most retailers and wholesalers use markup pricing exclusively because of its simplicity - users need only estimate the unit cost and add the markup. The first step requires that the unit cost be easy to estimate accurately and that production rates are fairly consistent. We assume that a jeans’ manufacturer has fixed costs (the cost of the factory, advertising, managers’ salaries, etc.) of $2,000,000. The variable cost for a pair of jeans (the cost of fabric, zipper, thread, and labor) is $20.00.

- AICPA Adapted Caddell Company, a wholesaler, purchases its inventories from various suppliers FOB destination. It incurs substantial warehousing costs.
