When management uses the absorption costing approach, fixed manufacturing overhead costs are classified as which of the following types of costs?
When management uses the absorption costing approach, fixed manufacturing overhead costs are classified as indirect product costs. This is because they are not directly traceable to specific units of production but are allocated to the cost of goods produced. Unlike direct costs, which can be attributed directly to individual units, indirect costs support the manufacturing process as a whole and must be distributed across all units produced.
