This document discusses relevance and materiality in determining which costs should be included as product costs. It states that a cost should be allocated as a product cost if it will influence decision-making about stock levels or selling prices. Additionally, a relevant cost must be material, or large enough, to influence these decisions. The document provides an example comparing two businesses, one that treats cartage inwards of $100 as a period cost and one that treats it as a product cost, demonstrating the impact this has on the resulting product cost and selling price.
