Factory overhead cost is an indirect cost that applies to all the activities of a company. It is not directly related to a particular product. For example, the salary of adminstrative staffs is not directly related to a product being produced.

The correct answer is letter "B": factory overhead cost.

Those costs are usually pooled later to be recorded with the costs of the total units produced. Examples of factory overhead are rent, utilities, depreciation, management wages or insurance.
