Abstract
The analysis of the costs and revenues concerning audiovisual products is the starting point of any theory of value and is instrumental to the understanding of pricing and financial dynamics of the audiovisual industry and single companies. In this chapter different types of costs related to the production and distribution of audiovisual products, as well as possible revenue sources, are analysed, distinguishing between TV products, films and audiovisual web products. The chapter is not intended to be a mere classification of costs, nor a handbook on the costs and revenues measures. It is rather an attempt to build a methodology to analyse the economics of the audiovisual industry.
