    Overheads are allocated and apportioned to cost centres

    Recognise the diversity and complexity of operations

    Tend to apportion to great a share of product to high volume products..

    Use both production volume related and transaction base cost drivers…

    ..Which of the following are ways of activity base costing and which are of tradational absorption costing ?

    Please don’t simply ask me questions – the book you found them in surely has answers!!

    Say what your problem is with the answer and I will try and help you.

    For your first question, the second and fourth statements relate to activity based costing. The first and third relate to absorption.

    For your second question, it is method study.

    (I don’t know who prepared the mock exam but they are both very poor questions – especially the second, and I am surprised they did not provide you with answers after you had attempted it!!)
