Before starting a business you need to know the different operational expenses that you would incurred and works towards meeting them to be able to cater for them all.

You would have to think about Salary and benefits payment, rent or property purchase costs which is very important, Advertising and marketing fees.
Others things to consider which you might need to pay for are Licensing fees, Property taxes, Utility costs,
Vehicle maintenance, and even direct materials costs

I believe that all these expenses are something that should be taken care of by the management of any businesses and put into consideration because it is going to be impossible for your business to operate on daily basis without sorting out those expenses.

When you think of all these costs faced by entrepreneurs, you cannot help but appreciate entrepreneurs who are still standing strong in business.
You are right I think this is why sone businesses failed some beginners don't know about these operational costs so they hardly planned towards it so we need to appreciate those who are still standing strong in business.

It is true that some new entrepreneurs didn't sit down to count the cost. They enter the business and are overwhelmed by it.

You have mentioned nearly all the operational costs a business would incur. In addition, there are expenses related to office equipment, inventory costs, insurance,, and funds allocated for development of new products which meet with changing customer needs.

And then we didn't talk about the cost of failed transactions. In a situation where a customer wants a replacement for claims of not working properly.

Failing to do this will always make you to have a very high cost of production which is going to affect your profit-making in the business and that makes it very difficult for you to survive in the business.

The management of business should understand the implications of these costs on the profit making potential of the business.

Knowing all those business costs, is a strong attestation that doing business is not that easy. One should be financially stable in order to sustain the business that he/she wants to put up.

It is not possible for you to know all operational cost at the start of a business. You will continue to encounter more of of it as the business is running. This explains why feasibility studies must be carried out before starting a business.
