Calculating Prime and Conversion Cost

The video tutorial explains the concepts of prime costs and conversion costs in the manufacturing process. Prime costs include direct materials and direct labor necessary to complete a product, excluding indirect costs. Conversion costs involve transforming raw materials into final products, including direct labor and overhead. The key difference between the two is the inclusion of overhead in conversion costs. The tutorial provides examples and contrasts the two cost types to clarify their application in manufacturing.
