6. Service companies sell time, skills, and knowledge. Examples of service companies include pho
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E 6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
neservice companies, banks, cleaning service companies, accounting firms, law firms, medical ph

ysicians, and online auction services. E6 E6 E6 E6
7. Merchandising companies resell products they buy from suppliers. Merchandisers keep an invento
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
ryof products, and managers are accountable for the purchasing, storage, and sale of the products.
6E E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E
Examples of merchandising companies include toy stores, grocery stores, and clothing stores.

8. Merchandising companies resell products they previously bought from suppliers, whereas manuf
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
acturing companies use labor, equipment, supplies, and facilities to convert raw materials intonew
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 6E
finished products. In contrast to merchandising companies, manufacturing companies have a bro
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
ad range of production activities that require tracking costs on three kinds of inventory.
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
9. The three inventory accounts used by manufacturing companies are Raw Materials Inventory, W
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
ork-in-Process Inventory, and Finished Goods Inventory.
6E E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
Raw Materials Inventory includes materials used to manufacture a product. Work-in-
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
ProcessInventory includes goods that have been started in the manufacturing process but ar
6E E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
e not yet complete. Finished Goods Inventory includes completed goods that have not yet
E6 E6 E6 E 6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
been sold. E6
10. A direct cost is a cost that can be easily and cost-
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
effectively traced to a cost object (which is anything for which managers want a separate meas
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
urement of cost). An indirect cost is a cost thatcannot be easily or cost-

effectively traced to a cost object. E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
11. The three manufacturing costs for a manufacturing company are direct materials, direct labor, an
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
d manufacturing overhead. Direct materials are materials that become a physical part of a finishe
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
d product and whose costs are easily traceable to the finished product. Direct labor is the labor c
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E 6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6
ost ofthe employees who convert materials into finished products. Manufacturing overhead inclu

es, manufacturing plant managers’ salaries, and depreciation on manufacturing buildings and e

13. Prime costs are direct materials plus direct labor. Conversion costs are direct labor plus manu

14. Product costs are the cost of purchasing or making a product. These costs are recorded as an

E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6

16. Cost of Goods Manufactured is calculated as Beginning Work-in-

17. For a manufacturing company, the activity in the Finished Goods Inventory account provides
E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E6 E
6theinformation for determining Cost of Goods Sold. A manufacturing company calculates Cos
