    Hi sir , i would like to ask about this statement whether it is correct or incorrect ,

    The costs of introducing and maintaining an activity based costing system may exceed the benefits of such a costing system

    The answer is correct but i do not truly understand why it is correct. Does the word ‘may’ in the question makes the statement correct ?

    Thank you sir 🙂

    Yes – it is the word may.

    It is not saying that the costs will be more than the benefits, it is saying that they might be more than the benefits, which is of course true as I explain in my free lectures.
