Summary
Costs are an essential tool in the economic management of enterprises. According to the results of an empirical study, contemporary Bulgarian practice recognizes this fact. In the same time we witness a number of controversies regarding the understanding of costs, assessing their relevance to financial management and practical implementation of various cost. The main reason for this is a lack of adequate knowledge for the opportunities offered by the different approaches to cost management. As a necessary first step we consider dissemination of information for costs in various aspects. Responding to that gap, we propose a broad modern classification of costs, combining classification criteria, classification purposes and specific types of costs.
