22. COST CENTRE
Two types of cost centers:
1. Production Cost Centers
• Cost centres directly involved in the manufacturing operations.
2. Service Cost Centers
• Service cost centres are incidental to the production process.
• Do not produce products directly.

product, service or time (or
combination of these) in relation to
which costs may be ascertained or

department. It is convenient to identify and specific to the
manufacturing or production process.
• Indirect Cost is incurred for the benefit of direct cost process /
departments. It cannot be traced or identified directly and benefits
several departments/ processes.
25. CLASSIFICATION BASED ON ACTIVITY
Based on changes in level of activity or volume of production cost
can be classified as FIXED COST, VARIABLE COST and SEMI VARIABLE
COST.

output.
• Semi variable Cost is the cost includes both fixed and variable
