Project costing is the process of estimating, budgeting, and controlling the costs associated with a project. It is an important part of project management, as it helps to ensure that projects are completed on time and within budget. There are many different methods for project costing, and the best method for a particular project will depend on the size, complexity, and duration of the project.
Types of Project Costing
There are two main types of project costing: bottom-up and top-down.
