Which of the following items is not a characteristic of a process cost system?
The products produced are heterogeneous in nature.
When the finished product emerges, all units have precisely the same amount of materials, labor, and
overhead.
The focus is on continually producing homogeneous products.
Once production begins, it continues until the finished product emerges.
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.

The allocation of indirect costs in an activity-based costing system a. may require other costs to be allocated to activities before the costs of the activities can be allocated to the products. b. is simplified because more costs are identified as direct costs. c. requires the use of heterogeneous cost pools. d. is simplified because a limited number of activities are identified as cost objects.

Cross Process Costing c.Sequential Process Costing D.Selective Process CostingWhich is not a feature of process costing : O The output of multiple process is used as raw materĂal by another process. O Calculate output in terms of equivalent units. O Process costs arĂ© appropriate for industries that manufacture homogeneous products. O The output of one process is used as raw material by another process.arrow_forward
- In a process costing system, which of the following would be TRUE? a.There is no need to use time tickets to assign costs to processes. b.There is no need to track materials to processes. c.A process costing system is more expensive to maintain because it has more work-in-process accounts. d.All of these choices are true.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true? * Â A. The traditional approach to costing uses many different cost drivers. B. Costs that are indirect to products are by definition traceable to directly to products. C. Costs that are indirect to products are traceable to some activity. D. All of the above statements are true.arrow_forwardThe primary difference between variable costing and absorption costing is in variable costing, fixed manufacturing overhead is a product cost. in absorption costing, fixed manufacturing overhead is a product cost. invariable costing, variable selling, and administrative costs are product costs. in absorption costing, fixed selling and administrative costs are product costs.arrow_forward
- Which among the following is not true about traditional costing system? a. This method allocates greater proportion of overheads to high volume products b. This method avoids the phenomenon of product cost cross subsidization c. This method allocates smaller proportion of overheads to low volume products d. This method leads to cost smoothingarrow_forwardUnder full absorption costing, which of the following are included in product costs?Only variable manufacturing costs.Only conversion costs.All fixed and variable manufacturing costs.Only direct materials and direct labor.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements are true? Multiple select question. Within the relevant range of activity, increases or decreases in activity change fixed costs. Fixed costs are proportional to activity. Fixed costs are applied to work in process like they are variable costs. Treating fixed costs as variable is necessary for product costing.arrow_forward
