Which statement is FALSE? Activity-Based Costing includes non-manufacturing costs in product costs, so the inventory in the balance sheet will be higher under ABC than under traditional costing. Job costing does not consider non-manufacturing costs when recording product costs Activity-Based Costing can improve the accuracy of product cost in a Job Costing setting more than in process costing. None of above Increasing the number of indirect cost pools under ABC does not necessarily increase the accuracy of product costs.

Select the correct response: To determine the cost of production of every order To plan future course of activities To control operational efficiency by comparing actual costs with estimated costs To determine the profitability of each job in order to undertake present orders of different nature
Which THREE of the following statements about activity-based costing (ABC) and traditional costing systems (absorption costing and marginal costing) are correct? OABC is better than absorption costing in understanding what causes costs to be incurred Both ABC and marginal costing treat all fixed costs as product costs No over-absorption or under-absorption of overheads can occur under ABC Marginal costing understates the true cost of a product when compared to ABC ABC is not suitable for use in businesses that provide services OABC is useful for businesses which have high overheads in their cost structure

Which of the following statements is false? A. The departmental and traditional costing methods create cost distortions when there is significant costs associated with batch activities. B. The manufacturing overhead is applied to product by applying the POHR to actual cost drivers that occur during the production period C. The activity based costing system provides the most accurate product costing results D. Actual manufacturing overhead costs and the actual cost driver amounts are used to create the predetermined overhead rate (POHR)
Explain how absorption costing can enable a manager to increase production solely for the purpose of inflating profit but prevents a manager from doing this if variable costing is used.

Organizations are motivated to use multiple indirect cost pools instead of a single indirect cost pool when Select one: O a. Multiple Indirect cost pools are needed to conform to external reporting requirements b. manufacturing overhead costs are difficult to control c. the cost drivers for the multiple indirect cost pools are different from the cost driver of the single indirect cost pool d. none of the options
Which of the following conditions would favour the use of activity-based costing (ABC) rather than traditional absorption costing? (1) Overheads represent a large proportion of total cost (2) A diverse product range with complex manufacturing operations (3) Overheads are primarily driven by volume of output O 1, 2 and 3 O 2 only O 1 and 3 only O 1 and 2 only
Which of the following is most likely to be true of the manufacturing overhead costs assigned to a product with relatively low volume and high complexity? O a. An ABC system will assign the same manufacturing overhead costs to the product as a volume- based system. O b. Avolume-based system will assign more manufacturing overhead costs to the product than an ABC system. O c. An ABC system will assign more manufacturing overhead costs to the product than a volume-based system. O d. An ABC system will assign manufacturing overhead costs to the product, while a volume-based system will not. e to search W 11:35 A D A dx ENG 22-05-2021 hp 141 brt se delete home end 96 - backspace num ask lock T 7V 8A 94 home Dg up K enter 5 0 pause ↑ shift 11 end alt ctrl SUt
