Hello Team,

Manufacturing costs. These costs are incurred to make a product. Manufacturing costs are usually grouped into three main categories: direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.

a. Direct materials. Direct materials consist of those raw material inputs that become an integral part of a finished product and can be easily traced into it. Examples include the aircraft engines on a Boeing 777, the Intel processing chip in a personal computer, and the blank video cassette in a pre-recorded video. b. Direct Labor. Direct labor consists of that portion of labor cost that can be easily traced to a product. Direct labor is sometimes referred to as “touch labor” since it consists of the costs of workers who “touch” the product as it is being made.c. Manufacturing Overhead. Manufacturing overhead consists of all manufacturing costs other than direct materials and direct labor. These costs cannot be easily and conveniently traced to products. Examples include miscellaneous supplies such as rivets in a Boeing 777, supervisors, janitors, factory facility charges, etc. d. Prime versus Conversion Costs. Prime cost consists of direct materials plus direct labor. Conversion cost consists of direct labor plus manufacturing overhead.

Regards,

 

Saiyid
