    Which one of the following firms is most likely to use a system of job costing?
    A. A company that manufactures motor cars on a production line
    B A telephone company that provides mobile telecommunications services
    C chemical manufacturer that produces processed chemicals
    D. A company that installs elevators in office buildings
    I am hesitating between B and D but im not sure which one? Can you explain to me please?

    The answer is D because each installation is going to be different (building are different heights for example) and so each job will be costed separately.

    A mobile phone company is providing the same service to everyone.
