The most difference is on cost estimation. In PreFS, cost estimation is based on assumptions while cost estimation in FS is normally based on vendors' offers/proposals, at least for expensive price equipment/materials.
Cost objectives determines the cost allocation. It determines the product, service or department that will receive the allocation.

answer
Cost estimation is important because each project has the risk of added costs that weren't consider up front throwing the project into a state where you may not have the budget required to continue working on the project. The cost estimation should include the initial assessment plus % available for added costs.
COCOMO constructive cost estimation model
1,estimation is finding the cost before it has been actually manufactured. and costing is finding cost after manufacturing the product including the defect product cost. 2,estimation need high technical skills and knowledge hence its done by engineering department but costing need high accounting skills hence its usually done by Accountants or account departments 3,estimation foresee the probable cost and hence it can be used to decide whether one need to produce a particular product or not. or if its profitable or not costing helps to understand to what extent the estimation holds good also when and where it fails
estimation is how much you think it would costs and budget is how much you decide it will cost after several estimations. budget is how much you can spend.
