Overheads

In cost accounting, overhead refers to those expenses which occur during the operating of a business. Overhead includes the fixed, variable, or semi-variable which is not directly involved with a company product or service. It is very important to analyze overhead expense as it helps the company in determining how much a company must charge for its products and services so that they can generate profit.  Overhead expenses depend upon the nature of the business operations.
