Bus/Financial - Accounting / Internal reporting | | German term or phrase: Fixkostenbrücke | There isn't much context... The document is a memo about internal reporting deadlines in an AG. Can anyone shed light on what a "Brücke" is in this context? Thanks!
Auf Grund der kurzen Zeitspanne zwischen Datenmeldung und Erstellung der Fixkostenbrücken wird um Berücksichtigung des Zeitplans gebeten.
...Es werden in einem 1. Schritt die eingereichten Daten zur Erstellung der Fixkostenbrücke verwendet (19.10.). Korrekturen werden dann in den Kalenderwochen 42 und 43 durchgeführt. Hierzu werden Besprechungstermine am 24.10./25.10. mit den Einheiten vereinbart, um die erforderlichen Anpassungen umzusetzen. |

Fixed costs are those that do not change with the level of sales. If sales increase or decrease but nothing else changes then fixed costs remain the same. Common examples of fixed costs include rents, salaries of permanent employees and depreciation.
