Cost incurred and related to administration activities. Cost incurred and related to the selling and distributing activities.
15. Manufacturing Cost Concept KAL1013 Chapter Eight Manufacturing consists of activities and processes that convert raw materials into finished goods. Manufacturing costs are usually classified as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Manufacturing overhead
16. Manufacturing Cost : Direct Materials KAL1013 Chapter Eight Raw materials are the basic materials and parts that are to be used in the manufacturing process. Raw materials that can be physically and directly associated with the finished product during the manufacturing process are called direct materials .
17. Manufacturing Cost : Indirect Materials KAL1013 Chapter Eight Some raw materials cannot be easily associated with the finished product. These are considered indirect materials . Are accounted for as part of manufacturing overhead and : do not physically become part of the finished product; or 2 cannot be traced because their physical association with the finished product is too small in terms of cost .
18. Manufacturing Cost : Direct Labor KAL1013 Chapter Eight Direct labor is the work of factory employees that can be physically and directly associated with converting raw materials into finished goods. The wages of maintenance people, timekeepers, and supervisors are usually identified as indirect labor. Their efforts have no physical association with the finished product. Like indirect materials, indirect labor is part of manufacturing overhead.
19. Manufacturing Cost : Overhead KAL1013 Chapter Eight Manufacturing overhead consists of costs that are indirectly associated with the manufacture of the finished product. These costs may also be manufacturing costs that cannot be classified as direct materials or direct labor. Manufacturing overhead includes 1 indirect materials; 2 indirect labor; 3 depreciation on factory buildings and machines 4 insurance, taxes, and maintenance on factory facilities.
20. Product Cost vs. Period Cost KAL1013 Chapter Eight Product costs include each of the manufacturing cost elements (direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead); they are costs that are a necessary and integral part of producing the finished product. These costs are not expensed to cost of goods sold under the matching principle until the finished goods inventory is sold.
21. Product Cost vs. Period Cost KAL1013 Chapter Eight Direct materials and direct labor are often referred to as prime costs due to their direct association with the manufacturing of the finished product. Direct labor and manufacturing overhead are often referred to as conversion costs since they are incurred in converting raw materials into finished goods.
22. Product Cost vs. Period Cost KAL1013 Chapter Eight Period costs: are identifiable with a specific time period, relate to non-manufacturing non-inventoriable costs, and include selling and administrative expenses.
23. Product Cost vs. Period Cost KAL1013 Chapter Eight Direct Material Direct Labor Factory OH Prime Cost Conversion Cost Selling Expenses Admin Expenses Product Cost Period Cost Manufacturing Costs Non-manufacturing Costs
