    Dear John,

    Please be kind enough to explain what does it meant by ‘ design costs out of products’ which is listed under maximizing the return over the product life cycle.

    Thank you. ?

    It means change the design of the product in order to reduce the costs.

    (Are you watching the lectures in order, because I do mention this in the lecture on target costing, and give examples.)
