wht is the difference between marginal and absorption costing??

allocating all manufacturing costs to products regardless of whether they are fixed or variable. This approach is known as absorption costing/full costing
However, only variable costs are relevant to decision-making. This is known as marginal costing/variable costing
Absorption costing is costing system which treats all manufacturing costs including both the fixed and variable costs as product costs
Marginal Costing is a costing system which treats only the variable manufacturing costs as product costs. The fixed manufacturing overheads are regarded as period cost
