Cost Object: This includes a product, service, cost centre, activity, sub-activity, project, contract, customer or distribution channel or any other unit in relation to which costs are ascertained
Direct Expenses: Expenses relating to manufacture of a product or rendering a service, which can be identified or linked with the cost object other than direct material cost and direct employee cost. Leases is linked to cost object- LEASE CONTRACT (Principle+interest repayments)
Finance costs incurred in connection with the self generated or procured resources shall not form part of Direct Expenses. Lease are not self generated or procured.
Please principal repayment= financing activity.
Leases finance interest repayment= operating activity.
Leases ROU Asset = investing activities.
Examples of Direct Expenses
Comsidering the above, my qualitative hypothesis suggests that all things used in production are direct expenses. Leased asset is a part of PPE separately presented because, it’s depreciation, amortisation and impairment are inline with PPE standard.
