Answer
Fuel
Reason — Manufacturing (factory) overheads are indirect costs incurred in the production process, which include indirect materials (grease, oil), indirect labour (storekeeper's salary) and indirect expenses such as power and fuel. Fuel used in operating machinery in the factory is a typical example. Office rent and stationery are office and administrative overheads, while advertising is a selling and distribution overhead.
