Direct Variable Cost

Explanation:
You start with raw material(s). You use inputs to change the form of this/these raw material(s) to another form and you sell this new form. The costs you incurr directly in bringing about this change is Manufacturing Cost or Cost of Manufacturing. This cost does not include: Investment cost, Financial Costs, Establishment cost, Fixed costs etc. Manufacturing cost is purely the cost which is directly related to transforming to the form which you will sell. All other costs are treated separately. Hope this helps.
