               1.2 Production overheads

               The production function is usually divided into a number of departments or cost
               centres. Some of these cost centres are directly involved with the production
               process. These are called production cost centres.

               Other cost centres which are part of the production department are not directly
               involved with the production process but provide support services for the production
               cost centres. These are called service cost centres.
