SLC | S21W6 | Costos para emprendedores - Estructura de costos
Halo semuanya
Hari ini saya kembali berpartisipasi pada kontes SLC | S21W6 | Costos para emprendedores - Estructura de costos. Aku mengajak rekan untuk mengikuti kontes ini @zulbahri @teukuipul87 @furqanarr.
Cost structure is the way a business organizes and manages all the expenses required to run its operations. This includes all costs incurred to produce goods or services, market products, manage human resources, and maintain the sustainability of business operations.
Expenses that do not change regardless of the level of production or sales, such as rent, salaries of permanent employees, and monthly utility costs. Expenses that change with the level of production or sales, such as raw materials, sales commissions, or packaging costs.
A food truck that sells burgers and fresh drinks in strategic locations such as near campuses, offices, or city parks. This business uses a mixed cost structure to manage its operations.
Fixed Costs
If the truck is rented, this is a fixed cost each month. Legal paperwork and insurance coverage are fixed costs. If you have staff on a monthly salary, such as a driver or chef.
Variable Costs
Ingredients: Meat, burger buns, sauces, drinks, and other ingredients. These costs vary depending on the amount of sales.
Packaging Materials: Food boxes, straws, and napkins are also variable costs.
Truck Fuel: The farther away the sales location is, the higher the fuel costs.
Cost Structure Elements are the various components of expenditure that need to be identified and managed to support the operations of a business. These elements usually include fixed costs, variable costs, semi-variable costs, and indirect costs.
Fixed Costs
Costs that do not change even though the level of production or sales changes. These costs remain as long as the business is running.
Example:
Rent: For example, the cost of renting a building of IDR 5 million per month for a restaurant.
Permanent employee salaries: Employees who are paid IDR 4 million per month, regardless of the number of customers who come.
Business licenses: Legal costs such as operational permits that are paid annually.
Variable Costs
Costs that change with changes in production or sales levels.
Example:
Raw materials: In a cafe business, such as coffee, milk, and sugar. The more drinks made, the higher the cost of raw materials.
Sales commission: Commission of Rp5,000 for each product successfully sold by staff.
Packaging: Cost of paper bags or boxes used to ship customer orders.
Example of Application in Business: Coffee Cafe

Fixed Costs | Location rent IDR 10 million/month, barista salary IDR 4 million/month. |
Variable Costs | coffee, sugar, milk (raw materials); packaging glass; shipping costs. |
