Indirect Costs are related to a particular cost object but cannot be traced to it in an economically feasible way. For. Ex. Salaries of supervisors who oversee production of different products.
The term Cost allocation: is used to describe the assignment of indirect costs to a particular cost object.
Cost-allocation base: A cost-allocation base is the allocation basis used to allocate the costs in the cost pool to the cost object .

Inventoriable cost: are all costs of a product that are considered as assets in the balance sheet when they are incurred and that become cost of goods sold only when the product is sold.
Types of inventory:1- Direct materials inventory: direct material in stock and
awaiting use in the manufacturing process.2- Work-in-process inventory: goods partially worked on
but not yet completed.3- finished goods inventory: Goods completed by not yet
sold.4- Merchandise inventory: products that are held in their
original purchased form.
Period costs are all costs in the income statement other than cost of goods sold. They are treated as expenses of the accounting period in which they are incurred.

For merchandizing companies, period costs in the income statement are all costs not related to the cost of goods purchased for resale. Example, advertising costs.
