The method includes the steps of preparing at least three conductive elongated boards 711 made of an electrically conductive material and a resistive member 702 made of a resistive material, arranging the at least three conductive elongated boards 711 apart from each other along a width direction crossing a longitudinal direction in which one of the at least three conductive elongated boards 711 is elongated, forming a resistor aggregate 703 by bonding the resistive member 702 to the at least three conductive elongated boards 711, and collectively dividing the resistor aggregate 703 into a plurality of chip resistors by punching so that each of the chip resistors includes two electrodes and a resistor portion bonded to the two electrodes.
