From 2014 to 2023, Block, Inc. and NVIDIA Corporation have shown distinct approaches to handling these costs. Block, Inc. has seen a staggering 1,945% increase in SG&A expenses, from $207 million in 2014 to $4.2 billion in 2023. Meanwhile, NVIDIA's SG&A expenses grew by 460%, from $436 million to $2.44 billion over the same period.
