License and Royalty Costs

Money

The total amount paid for licenses (e.g., software) and royalties (payments made to stakeholders for using their assets). Keeping track helps ensure budgetary compliance and understand the cost of partnerships or asset usage.

Formula

Sum of all license fees + royalties paid

Example

If a company pays $10,000 for software licenses and $5,000 in royalty fees, the total would be $15,000.
