Answer 1

You can carry out costing for a sales document item (item in an inquiry, quotation or an order) to find out the planned costs for this item. This is called sales order costing.
Sales order costing can be carried out using the following methods:
Product costing
Product costing calculates the cost of the sales order item on the basis of the sales order
BOM. A sales order BOM could be part of a super BOM and the configuration object
dependencies.
Unit costing
Unit costing is used if the system cannot access a sales order BOM. You enter the items to
be costed manually in unit costing.
The system determines the prices of the materials and services involved according to the
valuation variants saved in the costing variant.You can use sales order costing to determine the manufacturing costs and total production costs of a material managed as sales stock. As well as the direct material costs and the direct costs of production, you can also determine material overhead costs, production overhead costs,distribution and administration costs or transportation and insurance costs.
Sales order costing is controlled mainly via the costing variant. The costing variant is stored in the requirements class as a proposal value. In the requirements class, you also store the costing method and the costing sheet.
Copying Sales Order Costing to the SD Conditions
You can copy the results of sales order costing to the SD conditions. Copying can be carried out:as a basis for pricing
If you want to use sales order costing as a basis for pricing in SD, you can use the
standard SAP condition type EK01.
at a statistical level
You can copy sales order costing at a statistical level, if you do not wish to determine the price on the basis of this costing, but you wish to use the costs determined to calculate the profit margin in SD.
EK02 is the condition type provided for this in the standard system.You can save the condition type in the sales and distribution document type. If you want to define the condition type with reference to the sales document item, then you can also save the condition type in the requirements class.
In the requirements class, you can also store a condition type for the transfer of the fixed costs
proportion of the planned costs. EK03 is the  condition provided for this in the standard system.
In Pricing, you may want to compare the prices with costs or even implement contribution margin
accounting.
To do this, you can use the condition type VPRS as the cost price.
The condition type VPRS goes into the valuation segment in the material master and determines
from this the standard price or average price.
The condition type VPRS is labeled as a statistical condition in the pricing procedure.  Using the condition category G, the condition type VPRS goes into the valuation segment of the material master and determines from here the standard or average price.
The condition category S always accesses the standard price whereas condition
category T always accesses the average price.
The profit margin is determined using the calculation formula 11 assigned in the pricing
procedure. In this calculation formula the cost price is subtracted from the subtotal of net
value 2.
