COST BEHAVIOR:
• VARIABLE COST - costs that change depending on the level of activity (like a rate), (pay per ride MetroCard, $2.75 per ride)
• FIXED COST - costs are the same regardless of the level of activity (i.e. monthly MetroCard, unlimited rides for $116.50/month)
• MIXED COST - costs that have both a fixed component and variable component (i.e. salespeople are paid a base salary (fixed) and
commissions (variable - based on how much you sell)
• Direct Cost - is traceable back to the manufactured product or cost center
• Indirect Cost - is not traceable or difficult to trace back to the manufactured product or cost center
MANUFACTURING COSTS: costs related to producing and manufacturing a good
*(THERE ARE 3 TYPES OF COST THAT MAKE UP THE MANUFACTURING COST FOR A FINISHED PRODUCT)
• DIRECT MATERIALS (DM) - raw materials used in production to make a good (i.e. leather used to make sneakers); *must be
traceable back to the finished product
• DIRECT LABOR (DL) – wages paid to workers who physically make the product (i.e. hourly wage paid to assembly workers who
put the sneakers together); * must be traceable back to the finished product
• MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD (OH) – other manufacturing costs incurred for the product to be produced and become a
finished good (costs must be related to manufacturing; factory costs, equipment costs, etc.)
A. Indirect Materials – small costs that are difficult to trace back to the manufactured product (i.e. cleaning supplies for the
machine that produces the sneakers)
B. Indirect Labor – labor costs that contribute to manufacturing the good but cannot be traced back or is difficult to trace back to
the finished good (i.e. wages paid to janitors)
C. Other – other costs that contribute to manufacturing the good (i.e. factory rent, depreciation of manufacturing equipment,
factory taxes, etc.)
