Understand the definition of manufacturing costs: Manufacturing costs are the costs incurred to produce a product. These include direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.
Break down the components: Direct materials are the raw materials that are directly used in the production of the product. Direct labor refers to the wages of workers who are directly involved in manufacturing. Manufacturing overhead includes all indirect costs related to production, such as factory utilities, depreciation of equipment, and factory maintenance.
Eliminate incorrect options: Selling expenses and administrative expenses are not part of manufacturing costs. These are considered period costs and are not directly tied to the production process.
Focus on the correct combination: The correct combination of manufacturing costs includes direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. These are the three main components of product costs.
Verify the answer: Ensure that the selected option aligns with the definition of manufacturing costs and excludes any unrelated expenses such as selling, administrative, or interest expenses.
