Yes the book does cover both of those subjects, although product modification is dealt with under the broader heading: Ch. 12.14 Custom Made Products. Regarding costs, see Ch.14 Calculating Actual Costs.
I haven't previously published my book's contents list, so here it is. This is from the current edition, but I expect to have the revised 2018 edition available by Spring and all who have previously bought copies will be entitled to free downloads of the new edition.
It is also worth noting that there are 75 sub-sections in those chapters, not counting the numerous sub-sections in Ch. 33 Glossary of Terms. Likewise in Ch. 19, Countries Other Than China? there are 27 links to B2B sites and sourcing locations other than B2B sites, together with specific instructions on how to carry out searches for a number of those sites.
I am providing all this detail because I often receive PMs asking for such information, as well as the occasional post.
