      Solution

      Cost Unit is a  quantitative standard of measurement for cost, which can be based on units of product, service, or time .   A hospital primarily provides inpatient accommodation and medical care over time.   A cost unit for a hospital is most appropriately measured as a combination of a bed and the duration it is used, i.e., per bed-day. This unit reflects the service provided over time.
