Activités based costing

HHaSupporter6y ago
The question is asked the benefit of using activity based costing And " activity based costing is particularly useful in single product business " is not the benefit.. They showed " activity based costing is most likely to be useful where there is a wide and diverse product range " Can you pls explain why ? Thanks Mr John

It is because ABC is a method of sharing the overheads between several products. If there was only one product then there would be no need to share the overheads - they would all be charged to the one product.
