1) Bank charges related to office administration can form part of admin overheads and thus in cost of production

2) Advertisement is part of selling & distribution overhead and thus not part of cost of production but of cost of sales

Advertisement cost is added after cost of production.
So it forms a part of selling and distribution overhead.
It is always apportioned on the basis of sales hence forms part of cost of sales.
Bank charges is an overhead but forms finance cost.
So an indirect overhead of administration overhead.
