➤ Why should sunk costs be ignored when deciding to stop production?
Sunk costs are past expenditures that cannot be recovered, so they should not affect current production decisions. Focus on relevant costs: marginal, variable, and opportunity costs. Decide based on whether producing covers variable costs and adds to fixed costs. Ignoring sunk costs avoids irrational continuation of loss-making operations.
