    What is indirect overhead?

    DateFriday, October 29, 2010 at 7:08AM

    Indirect Overhead is any overhead cost that is not part of manufacturing overhead.

    Thus, indirect overhead is not directly related to a company's production of goods or provision of services. Examples of indirect overhead costs are:

    • Office expenses
    • Telephone expenses
    • Administrative salaries
    • Accounting and legal expenses
