service companies, banks, cleaning service companies, accounting firms, law firms, medical

7. Merchandising companies resell products they buy from suppliers. Merchandisers keep an inventory of
V V V V V V V V V V V V




products, and managers are accountable for the purchasing, storage, and sale of the products. Examples

manufacturing companies use labor, equipment, supplies, and facilities to convert raw materials into
V V V V V V V V V V V V V




new finished products. In contrast to merchandising companies, manufacturing companies have a

broad range of production activities that require tracking costs on three kinds of inventory.

9. The three inventory accounts used by manufacturing companies are Raw Materials Inventory, Work- in-
V V V V V V V V V V V V V




Process Inventory, and Finished Goods Inventory.
V V V V V




Raw Materials Inventory includes materials used to manufacture a product. Work-in-Process Inventory
V V V V V V V V V V V




includes goods that have been started in the manufacturing process but are not yet complete. Finished
V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V




Goods Inventory includes completed goods that have not yet been sold.

10. A direct cost is a cost that can be easily and cost-effectively traced to a cost object (which is anything
V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V




for which managers want a separate measurement of cost). An indirect cost is a cost that cannot be
V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V




easily or cost-effectively traced to a cost object.
V V V V V V V V




11. The three manufacturing costs for a manufacturing company are direct materials, direct labor, and
V V V V V V V V V V V V V




manufacturing overhead. Direct materials are materials that become a physical part of a finished
V V V V V V V V V V V V V V




product and whose costs are easily traceable to the finished product. Direct labor is the labor cost of the
V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V V




employees who convert materials into finished products. Manufacturing overhead includes all
V V V V V V V V V V V




manufacturing costs except direct materials and direct labor, such as indirect materials, indirect labor,
V V V V V V V V V V V V V V




factory depreciation, factory rent, and factory property taxes.
