Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general)
Dutch term or phrase: Kosten oprichting
It's on a list of different expenses of a company. Very little context.

I am considering translating this as establishment costs or foundation costs, but I'm wondering if there is a more common term for this. (If it helps, you could translate "oprichtingskosten" instead.)
