ur welcome again syeda
can someone pls pls explain costing chpters to me...pls pls pls.....im gonna die if i dont understand!...i did a qns on it and i got 2/30!
PLS HELP ME OUT

costing in marginal u take only the variable costs as varing factors with production FC is the same,Stock is values ON VC

In absorption ALL the costs involved in production vary , In valuing stock u take the full vale i.e VC + FC per unit

got it ?

I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code. ;)

OAR is needed when aportioning the FC into units , u devide FC/by a choosen OAR base e.g Direct labour hrs
& calculate Total Fixed overheads for a given output

i.e OAR x Direct labour hrs(in example) x units
to get total Overheads.

Under/Over absorbtion is calculated by comparing the obtained value with Fixed Cost as given in question.
If FC > Calculated value its under absorbed
else  Over absorbed ? get that?

Dasith are there any questions in the pastpapers about batch and job costing in the summer session ??
i dont think so i came over any  :-\

mimi

you have to know the difference between continuous and specific order operations
learn also the characteristics and examples of job costing
and learn to explain the difference between job costing and batch costing

^ u should have them in your textbook, learn them

hmm about job & batch its actually based on the Marginal & absorption
wat u gotta do is alocate the costs on a base to a batch or unit
i.e of course as the data given in question.

Break even is where Take care= TR
no profit, no loss

or u could say its where
FC=contribution

or u could say

where
Contribution-FC = 0

or

cost of unit = price of unit

or

.............lol i think this is enoug ;D :P

Continuous processing is when a firm engages in mass production of one or a few single & identical goods, so its possible to apportion  costs into 1 unit or a number of units . whiche ever way the company finds convinient.
This may involve many processes to produce the good.

specific order is when a company produces on customer orders i.e goods for each order may vary in cost & prices. so its hard to apportion costs to a single unit , instead its apportiond for each order. since each order is uniqe in cost compared with others .
