Managerial Cost Concepts
LEARNING OBJECTIVE 2
Describe the classes of manufacturing costs and the
differences between product and period costs.
Managers should ask questions such as the following.
1. What costs are involved in making a product or
providing a service?
2. If we decrease production volume, will costs decrease?
3. What impact will automation have on total costs?
4. How can we best control costs?
LO 2 9Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Manufacturing Costs
Activities and processes that convert raw materials into
finished goods.
LO 2 10Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Manufacturing Costs
Direct Materials
• Raw materials are basic materials
and parts used in manufacturing
process
• Raw materials that can be
physically and directly associated
with finished are direct materials
LO 2 11Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Manufacturing Costs
Indirect Materials
Have one of two characteristics
1. Not physically part of finished product
2. Are impractical to trace to finished product because
their association with finished product is too small in
terms of cost
Considered part of manufacturing overhead
LO 2 12Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Manufacturing Costs
Direct Labor and Indirect Labor
Direct Labor
Work of factory employees that
can be physically and directly
associated with converting raw
materials into finished goods.
Indirect Labor
• Work of factory employees that has no association with
finished product or
• which is impractical to trace costs to goods produced.
LO 2 13Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Manufacturing Costs
Manufacturing Overhead
• Costs indirectly associated with
manufacturing the finished product
• All manufacturing costs except
direct materials and direct labor
• Also called factory overhead,
indirect manufacturing costs, or
burden
LO 2 14Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Product Costs Versus Period Costs
Product Costs
• Components:
o Direct materials
o Direct labor
o Manufacturing overhead
• Costs that are an integral part of producing product
• Recorded in “inventory” account
• Not an expense (COGS) until goods are sold

Cost of Goods Manufactured Schedule
LO 3 26Copyright ©2018 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Balance Sheet
Inventory accounts of a manufacturer
• Raw Materials Inventory: Shows the cost of raw
• Work in Process Inventory: Shows the cost applicable
to units that have been started into production but are
only partially completed
