Definition

Outlay costs (Ro.: costuri directe, Fr.: coûts décaissés, n.m.pl., Gr.: πρόταση, Cz.: proplacené výdaje v hotovosti, Cr.: troškovi izdatka) (See also: disbursement, outgoings) = costs that a company has done, makes, or will do in the future. The costs are easy to recognise because they cover for example: rent costs, electricity, telecommunications, salaries, social contributions, equipment maintenance, production, and delivery costs.
