8. Merchandising companies resell products they previously bought from suppliers, whereas
AP

9. The three inventory accounts used by manufacturing companies are Raw Materials Inventory, Work-
in-Process Inventory, and Finished Goods Inventory.

ED
cannot be easily or cost-effectively traced to a cost object.
11. The three manufacturing costs for a manufacturing company are direct materials, direct labor, and
manufacturing overhead. Direct materials are materials that become a physical part of a finished
??
product and whose costs are easily traceable to the finished product. Direct labor is the labor cost of
the employees who convert materials into finished products. Manufacturing overhead includes all
manufacturing costs except direct materials and direct labor, such as indirect materials, indirect
labor, factory depreciation, factory rent, and factory property taxes.
