Abstract
Distribution Cost Analysis is a technique which examines in detail all the costs incurred in purchasing, selling and delivery of goods to the customer; it involves a study of cost control which is directly applicable to retail and wholesale operations. In particular, by showing the degree of expense that each part of the merchandising activity attracts, it helps to improve the merchandising policy of the wholesaler or retailer.
