Whole-Life Cost

The total amount a company spends on an asset over its entire usable life. Examples of whole-life costs include planning, research, purchase price, and maintenance. Companies estimate the whole-life cost prior to purchasing a new asset to determine whether or not it will be cost effective. It is also called the life cycle cost.
