Costs that behaves as irrelevant costs in process of decision making are classified as

  • A.past costs
  • B.future costs
  • C.expected costs
  • D.opportunity costs

Answer: A

Correct answer: past costs

A cost already incurred is the same whatever is now decided, so it cannot distinguish between the alternatives and is irrelevant to the choice. Only costs that differ between the alternatives - future and differential - are relevant, and opportunity costs are relevant for precisely that reason: they differ according to what is chosen.
