Nonmanufacturing costs are necessary to carry on general business operations but are not part of the physical manufacturing process.
These costs are represented during a period of time and are not calculated into the cost of good sold.
Nonmanufacturing costs consist of selling expenses, including marketing and commission expenses and sales salaries and administration expenses, such as office salaries, depreciation and supplies.
The purpose of addressing these costs differently is based on the fact that they are accounted for differently when structuring the income statement and balance sheet Manufacturing businesses have costs associated with manufacturing and nonmanufacturing business functions.
These costs are directly apportioned to the direct versus indirect costs associated with producing a product.
There are three major categories of manufacturing costs consisting of direct labor, direct material, and manufacturing overhead.
Nonmanufacturing, also known as "period" costs, consists of selling and administrative expenses.
Identifying, separating and apportioning cost data provides management and outside decision makers (investors) valuable information on the company's profitability and cost control systems.

The level of Manufacturing Costs are directly related with the level of production.
It consists the elements which are directly involved in the creation of product or services.
On the other hand, the Non-manufacturing costs are costs which are not directly related to production rather it is related to the administration, sales and promotion related costs.
A very clear idea of these two costs can be gained by identifying as product costs and period costs.
Product Costs are associated with any product or service and Period Costs are associated to the time.
