It analyzes how parties with conflicting interests build formal and informal contracts and investigates the formation of contracts in the presence of asymmetric information. Contract costing is the tracking of costs associated with a specific contract with a customer. For example, a company bids for a large construction project with a prospective customer, and the two parties agree in a contract for a certain type of reimbursement to the company. This reimbursement is based, at least in part, on the costs incurred by the company in order to fulfill the terms of the contract. (16) As the contract or work is done at the contract site far away from the premises of the contractor, the problem of cost control is greater in the case of contract costing. There can be loss of materials and equipment, damage to plants and wastage of labour, posing problem of cost control.
One hundred days before delivery, the estimated cost of forward contracting ranged from six cents/bu. to eight null hypothesis of a unit root could be rejected.

2. Direct Costs: Most of the costs of a contract can be allocated direct to the contract. All such direct costs are debited to the Contract Account. Direct costs for contract include: (i) Direct cost of materials, (ii) Direct labour and supervision, (iii) Direct Expenses, (iv) Depreciation of Plant and Machinery, (v) Sub-contract costs, etc. 3. Indirect Costs: A growing body of economic analysis finds that prevailing wage regulations do not inflate the costs of government construction contracts. A simple premise underlies the hypothesis that prevailing wages raise costs: the laws result in higher wage costs for contractors, and contractors pass these costs on to the government. residing within them. Moreover, the threshold point at which the costs of GDP growth outweigh the benefits appears to be contracting (i.e., occurring at a much lower per capita level of GDP). This paper therefore introduces a new contracting threshold hypothesis: as the economies of the Asia-Pacific region and the
