Direct Material cost:
Direct material cost is the cost of the material which is directly involved in the production. It constitutes the major portion of the total cost of the finished product. For example: The cost of plastic is the direct material for manufacturing a bottle.
Direct Labor Cost:
Direct labor cost is the cost of the labor paid to the employees who are directly involved in converting the raw materials to the finished products. It constitutes the major portion of the total cost of the finished product. For example: Wages paid to the mechanic for repairing an automobile.
Service
Service overhead cost is the cost other than the direct material cost, and the direct labor cost which is not directly involved in the production process of converting the raw materials to the finished products. If the direct material cost or direct labor cost does not constitute the major portion of the total cost of the finished product, then it may be classified as the service overhead cost. For example: Cost of repairing, and maintaining factory equipment.
