Period Costs
This video explains the concept of period costs in managerial and cost accounting. Period costs include things like SG&A expense, and these costs differ from product costs in that they are expensed as incurred (wherewas product costs attach to the product as inventory and flow out of the firm when the product is sold as Cost of Goods Sold).

I'm so glad I found these videos... my accounting class is entirely online with no lectures, and I am not doing well teaching myself!! Thanks for making them!!
If Ed ever takes these fantastic videos down, my accounting professors are fucked, they might have to actually teach the material themselves instead of listing KZread links!

Do these videos relate to the WGU course of cost and managerial accounting?
Thank you so much...textbook isn't so well at explaining these topics.
Thank you for this! Just one question, why is marketing a period cost? Isn't it connected to the products?

If the insurance is for something not related to manufacturing, then it would be a period cost. If the insurance is related to manufacturing (i.e. insurance on the factory), then this would be considered manufacturing overhead and be a part of the product's cost.

If it’s electricity for the factory then yes, it’s MOH so a product cost. If it’s electricity for an accounting office building then it’s a period cost.

Is period cost are fixed cost?
@Edspira

Not all period costs are fixed costs. For example, you will have more selling costs as production increases. Thus selling costs would be a variable cost. However, something like a copy machine lease would be be a fixed amount per month.

No, not necessarily. For instance, commission is a variable cost but at the same time it is also Period Cost.
