English term or phrase: Under absorption
Hola, en un contrato entre empresas me aparece la siguiente oración:

"Should in any case XXX be confronted with losses due to under absorption, PRINCIPAL will compensate this. Therefore PRINCIPAL assumes the Capacity Risks".

¿Alguien me orienta a qué se refiere under absorption en este caso?

Gracias de antemano!

under absorption
por debajo del costo de absorción


Explanation:
Hola Natalí:
"Si eventualmente XXX se enfrentara a pérdidas por estar por debajo del costo de absorción, Principal lo compensará. Por lo tanto, Principal asume los riesgos de capacidad".

Principal es un nombre propio: https://www.principal.com

https://www.accountingtools.com/articles/what-is-under-absor...
When a company uses standard costing, it derives a standard amount of overhead cost that should be incurred in an accounting period, and applies this standard amount of overhead to cost objects (usually produced goods). If the actual amount of overhead turns out to be different from the standard amount of overhead, then the overhead is said to either under absorbed or over absorbed.

If overhead is under absorbed, this means that more actual overhead costs were incurred than expected, with the difference being charged to expense as incurred. This usually means that the recognition of expense is accelerated into the current period, so that the amount of profit recognized declines.

absorción de costes
1. Determinación del coste de una unidad incluyendo su coste variable y semivariable y su participación en los costes fijos y costes indirectos o de estructura, de acuerdo con unos criterios justificables. Se dice que una actividad o la venta de un producto absorbe gastos fijos cuando su precio de venta excede del coste variable y aporta esa diferencia para cubrir los gastos fijos de la empresa.

La empresa acepta las oportunidades de negocio que ofrecen los ingresos por encima de la absorción de costos y rechaza las oportunidades de negocio que proporcionan ingresos por debajo del costo por absorción. Algunos de los negocios que la compañía rechaza pueden contribuir ganancias adicionales a la sociedad cuando tiene un exceso de capacidad.
