    Hi Dear Tutor, In bpp there is “source of management information and management reports” section.

    At the end of this section there is costs of information heading showing “the cost of obtaining external data”

    Direct search cost from its name it is direct cost

    Indirect access cost from its name it is indirect

    management cost-is it direct or indirect cost?

    Examples

    Recording, processing and dissemination of external infiormation

    wasted time due to information overload

    wasted time on excessive processing

    Infrastucture cost so it is direct cost due ot given examples

    Examples

    installation, testing

    time theft-is it direct cost or indirect?

    Examples

    lost time

    cost of monitoring and disciplinary procedures

    information load

    could you please explain the ones which I asked.
