Value Added
(redirected from Added cost)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Value Added
Value added is the risk adjusted return generated by an investment strategy: the return of the investment strategy minus the return of the benchmark.

Value Added
The increase to the value of a product at each stage in a production cycle or supply chain. For example, a timber company cuts down trees, which adds value to the wood because it can then be used. It may then sell the timber to a miller, who adds value by refining the timber into planks of wood. A carpenter who buys the planks adds value by making them into a table, which can then be sold to a customer. The concept of value added is most important in countries and other jurisdictions that have a value-added tax.

Heavy industries are battling to avoid paying for permits, saying the added cost will harm their ability to compete with overseas rivals such as those in India, North Africa or Russia.
Despite this, for most small firms, the added cost and inconvenience caused by this strike could prove a near-fatal blow in such testing economic conditions and, for that reason alone, government intervention is surely necessary to ensure that damage is limited.
It's just another one of those financial things that you figure you don't really want the added cost to your monthly budget.
