good question
We used to have jobs in manufacturing here, but most of the industry has moved to regions that have lower wages for workers.
that is the order of manufacturing account Direct materials + Direct wages + Direct expenses (like loyalty fees) = prime cost Production overheads = indirect wages, depreciation Non Production overheads = like Work in progress
If wages are paid of those workers which directly related with the manufacturing or units then wages are part of prime cost otherwise it is part of conversion cost.
The influx of immigrant worker affected the American manufacturing because of economic issues. Many of the immigrant workers were willing to work for small wages for other sectors that competed with manufacturing companies.
Salaries and wages of workers directly involve in goods manufacturing is direct labor cost.

Direct labor cost is the salaries and wages of all workers directly involved in manufacturing of goods.
