Depreciation is a period cost and not a product cost as depreciation is still charged even if there is no production or sale of goods.
Depreciation on delivery truck is period cost as it is not necessary for the making of product.
product cost
Yes depreciation of delivery truck is period cost because it is not product cost as it is not require to make the units of product.
A and C Net national product/ depreciation net national product/ capital consumption
In the US, the answer depends on what depreciable assets you are talking about.Depreciation on any depreciable asset that is directlyused in the production of goods is part of Manufacturing Overhead, and therefore is a product cost, which is included in the calculation of the value of both inventory and cost of goods sold. So, depreciation on a factory building and factory equipment directly used to manufacture a product are both product costs.Conversely, depreciation on equipment that is NOTdirectly used in production (e.g., depreciation on office computer equipment) is NOT a product cost.
A and C Net national product/ depreciation net national product/ capital consumption
A and C Net national product/ depreciation net national product/ capital consumption
(gross national product or GNP) minus depreciation = net national product
Net Domestic Product NDP
Net state Domestic Product = Gross Domestic Product(GDP) - Depreciation
Net National product
If factory building is used in production of units of product then it will be added to product cost as it is part of product to manufacture.
