Controllable costs include: direct labour, some overhead costs, such as quality inspection and machine set ups. In answering this question, it is important to explain why these costs are controllable; for example, Kevin oversees the entire production process so he is likely to be involved in hiring workers. As such, he has control over wages of both factory workers (direct labour) and supervisors (indirect labour).
Uncontrollable costs include advertising (Kevin is only the production manager so he is not involved in advertising) and shipping costs (the question suggests that Kevin has to use the company's shipping and transportation department, so he does not have control over shipping costs).
