Types of Materials
In accounting terms, companies classify materials as either indirect or direct, based on where/how they are used in the manufacturing process.
- Indirect materials – A business will classify a material as indirect if not included in the final product. The indirect material used cannot typically be traced to an individual product, as indirect materials can include lightbulbs, gloves, oils, and glue.
- Direct materials – Materials that are considered direct can be traced to the final product. Examples include a spring used to make a toy, cement in a building, or chocolate chips baked into a cookie.
