Administration overhead is specific to the product as it is directly related to direct labour as mentioned in the question and hence to be considered in cost of production only. 2. Cash discount is treated as interest and finance charges; hence, it is ignored. 3. Penalty paid against the copyright infringement case is an abnormal cost; hence, not included.
