Sunk Cost
A sunk cost is an expense that has already been incurred and cannot be recovered, regardless of future outcomes. It represents money or resources spent on past decisions, such as investments in a failed project or outdated equipment. Since sunk costs cannot be changed, they should not influence future business or investment decisions; only potential future costs and benefits should matter.
