Assignment Details

Costing systems provide information that is used for a large variety of business decisions including planning production of goods and services, pricing products, and controlling associated costs of production.

1. In what type of situation would a company use multiple cost accounting systems?

3. Describe two products or services that might use both process and job order costing methods to determine the cost of a finished unit.
