What is costing in your folio?
Show answer
Your scheduled production plan includes a materials and costings list, so economic factors are not abstract; you price your own design. Working out what materials, fittings and finishes cost, staying within a realistic budget, and noting where a cheaper alternative was rejected for quality reasons all demonstrate economic awareness. This costing feeds the later evaluation of efficiency.
