Overheads can be classified on the basis of control into two categories:
Controllable Overheads: These are the overheads that can be influenced or controlled by the management of a particular department or cost center. Examples include departmental salaries, departmental supplies, and departmental depreciation.
Uncontrollable Overheads: These are the overheads that cannot be influenced or controlled by the management of a particular department or cost center. They are generally controlled by the top management. Examples include rent, rates, taxes, insurance, and general administration expenses.
