    Which of these are classified as distribution costs?

    1. Rental of the finished goods warehouse
    2. Depreciation of its own fleet of delivery vehicles
    3. Commission paid to sales staff

    Answer: 1& 2

    The commission paid to sales staff is classified under indirect labour costs. Is the commission classified under selling costs?

    Yes – they are paid commission for doing the selling! (and, of course, selling costs are indirect labour costs as I explain in my free lectures)
