Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) service levels remain stubbornly low in rural India despite high levels of public expenditure recently. In many areas, this is because service levels have slipped back for reasons including inadequate protection of water sources (quantity and quality) and more attention given to capital expenditure than expenditure on operational and capital maintenance. This paper argues that adoption of a life-cycle cost approach (LCCA) could play a significant role in rectifying this by providing a framework for identifying and plugging gaps in the present pattern of expenditure. It is argued that LCCA will provide a sound basis for implementing the WASH Guidelines released by the Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water Mission in 2010. These guidelines signal a shift away from viewing the provision of WASH services as primarily an engineering challenge to one that requires activities that include source protection, institution building and long-term support and pro-poor planning, all of which need to be budgeted for by WASH service providers and/or users. Preliminary findings indicate that LCCA can be used to assess actual life-cycle costs of sustainable, equitable and efficient WASH service delivery. The challenge now is to investigate how best LCCA can be mainstreamed into WASH planning and other governance processes.

Airline Company

The airline operating cost may vary along the operation time of the aircraft. This cost fluctuation should be taken as consideration for the decision-making process, for instance, the pricing calculation. A poor costing might distort pricing leading to a loss of business. A long-term oriented cost calculation to forecast the total cost of aircraft during the operation time is critical for the airline company. This research will study whether the life cycle cost analysis is fit for airline company with an emphasis on maintenance and disposal or aircraft redelivery cost and focus on aircraft operating lease context. It uses a case study framework on an airline in Indonesia with the interview and documentation analysis as the main research method. The life cycle cost is found to be fit for the airline company with activity-based life-cycle costing as the applicative model. The research presents an approach that provides a long-term oriented costing that is needed for management decision. Keywords: life cycle costing, airline operating cost
