While calculating cost of goods in consignment we consider only non-recurring expenses but while calculating cost of goods in joint venture every expense incurred by the joint venturers is considered. Why??

Freight, carriage are examples of non-recurring expenses. Recurring expenses like selling expenses are not considered while calculating cost of goods in consignment but are considered in joint venture. Why is it so?

Freight carriage etc., are direct expenditure relating to the consignment. Therefore they are absorbed as cost of goods. In the case of selling expenses it is post acquisition general expenditure.
