Answer: " (a) Frames and tires used in manufacturing bicycles" - Direct materials.

" (b) Wages paid to production workers." - Direct labor.

" (c) Insurance on factory equipment and machinery." - Manufacturing overhead.

" (d) Depreciation on factory equipment." - Manufacturing overhead.

Explanation: Direct materials are all those that are used directly in the production of a good or service.

Direct labor is that directly involved in the production of a good or service.

Manufacturing overheads are all those expenses that, although necessary for the production of a good or service, are not directly involved in the production process.
