Understand the definition of sunk costs: these are costs that have already been incurred and cannot be recovered regardless of future actions.
Recognize that sunk costs are not relevant for future decision-making because they do not change with the level of output or production decisions.
Compare sunk costs with other types of costs such as variable costs (which vary with output) and avoidable costs (which can be eliminated by not producing).
Identify that sunk costs differ from future expenditures because sunk costs cannot be changed or avoided, while future costs can be influenced by current decisions.
Conclude that the correct characterization of sunk costs is that they have already been incurred and cannot be recovered.
