The cost price corresponds to the total sum of all costs incurred to produce a good or provide a service. It includes direct costs (raw materials, specific labor) and indirect costs (overheads such as rent, administration, depreciation). It is an essential indicator for determining the selling price and analyzing profitability. Accurately calculating this cost presents challenges, notably the allocation of indirect expenses, regular fluctuations in resource prices, and hidden costs. Mastering the cost price allows for better resource management, enhancing the company’s competitiveness and long-term sustainability.

This research compares student entrepreneurial ecosystems in France and Norway, focusing on how students access support, resources, and networks. In France, the system is centralized, driven by key actors like Student Hubs for Innovation, Transfer and Entrepreneurship, called PEPITE. In Norway, it is open and collaborative, with strong student associations and community ties. Using interviews and social network analysis, I explored the access and the circulation of information among actors in student entrepreneurial ecosystems. The results reveal different paths to innovation shaped by culture, policy, and education. Supporting student entrepreneurship is not just about funding or training. It’s about building inclusive ecosystems where students, mentors, and institutions work together.

The income statement is an essential document in accounting, showing the evolution of a company's income and expenses over a period, unlike the balance sheet which captures a situation at a precise moment. It is divided into three categories: operating (routine activities), financial (financing operations) and exceptional (specific events). The income statement influences economic performance and profitability, helping to guide decisions.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are 17 objectives adopted in 2015 by the United Nations to simultaneously address global economic, social, and environmental challenges by 2030. They cover a wide range of issues such as the eradication of poverty, universal access to quality education, the preservation of ecosystems, sustainable resource management, and the fight against climate change. For companies, adopting the SDGs represents a major strategic opportunity: it allows them to strengthen their social and environmental responsibility, improve their brand image, attract ethically conscious investors, while ensuring their long-term economic performance. However, successfully integrating them requires a strong commitment and real mobilization from all stakeholders inside and outside the company.

Environmental accounting aims to conserve natural capital, as traditional accounting does for financial assets, by valuing companies that promote the environment. The goal is to help companies integrate the costs associated with environmental impacts into their financial decisions. There are several types of environmental accounting: physical accounting (measuring resource flows such as water), monetary accounting (financial valuation of environmental costs), and ecological accounting (valuing ecosystem services).
