Which of the following is not a step involved in activity-based costing? Multiple Choice Identify the activities that consume resources and assign costs to those activities.

Doede Corporation uses activity-based costing to compute product margins. In the first stage, the activity-based costing system allocates two overhead accounts--equipment depreciation and supervisory expense--to three activity cost pools--Machining, Order Filling, and Other--based on resource consumption. Data to perform these allocations appear below. Overhead costs: Equipment depreciation Supervisory expense $39,000 $ 9,200 Distribution of Resource Consumption Across Activity Cost Pools: Activity Cost Pools Machining Order Filling 0.60 0.30 0.60 0.20 Equipment depreciation Supervisory expense Other 0.10 0.20 In the second...

Select the incorrect statement regarding the use of cost drivers in activity based costing systems. Multiple Choice O ABC uses volume-based and activity based cost drivers. 0 Volume based drivers are most appropriate for costs that are affected by the number of units produced 0 ABC's use of multiple cost drivers will produce less accurate unit costs when a company produces many different products that require different types and levels of overhead costs. 0 An arbitrary cost driver must be...

Which of the following statements about activity-based costing is false? Activity-based costing is most appropriate for a firm that produces similar products that use similar resources. Activity-based costing requires a two-stage allocation of costs. Activity-based costing categorizes costs as unit-level, batch-level, product-level, or organization-sustaining. Activity-based costing can be used for manufacturing, administrative, or selling costs.
