Nota para Fernando Latorre:
Gracias por tu opinión.
Me doy cuenta de que en España es más común “por su cuenta y cargo", y de que dicen “coste” y no “costo” ni “costas”, así como llaman “piso” a lo que por estos lares llamamos “apartamento”, y muchísimas otras cosas. Olvidé el inconveniente de que no soy español ni vivo en España.

disagree  Fernando Latorre: Algo obsoleta esa opción (mira en google). Mucho más frecuente en contratos usar "por su cuenta y cargo". Y en cualquier caso en España se usa "coste", no "costo", esto va para todas las opciones anteriores también. (Fuente: Fundeu)
