Definition Definition System of assigning an estimated cost to the product (instead of the actual cost) so that the product cost can be determined well in advance and the pricing of the product can be done on time. Since the actual cost cannot be predicted at the initial stage of the production process, the estimated cost is recorded in the books. Any deviation of the estimated cost of the actual cost is adjusted in the books at the end of the period.
