Please post your initial response as early as possible and continue to participate throughout the unit.

You should also respond to anyone who has responded to you. Your Discussion should be a minimum of 250 words in length and not more than 450 words. Please include a word count. Following the APA standard, use references and in-text citations for the textbook and any other sources. Select a public (i. e. one that publishes its financial information) manufacturing company and become familiar with its products. Describe the company, its products, and the specific manufacturing costs it incurs. Categorize each cost into the three manufacturing cost categories and state if the costs are variable, fixed, or mixed. Explain how you came to your conclusions. Note: if you do not have work experience, you may select a company with which you are familiar and apply the discussion assignment to it."
