6. Employees with line positions are directly involved in the company’s primary revenue generating
operating activities. Examples would include factory managers and supervisors, and the vice

president of operations. In contrast, employees with staff positions are not directly involved in
revenue-generating operating activities, but rather serve in a support capacity to line employees.
Examples include employees in finance, legal, and human resources.

10. Product costs, or inventoriable costs, are costs that are a necessary and integral part of
producing the finished product, they are classified as manufacturing costs. Period costs are costs
that are identified with a specific time period rather than with a salable product. These costs

relate to nonmanufacturing activities and therefore are not inventoriable costs, they are expensed
as incurred.
