and direct labor to production. The reason for this difference in procedures is
Mark 3.00 out of
that:
3.00
Select one:
a. overhead is an indirect cost which cannot be traced easily and directly
to specific units of product
b. independent of both the number and the type of products manufactured
and also independent of the amount of overhead costs incurred
c. traceable directly to the products manufactured but independent of the
amount of overhead costs incurred
d. independent of the type and number of units manufactured but a casual
factor in the amount of overhead cost incurred
Your answer is correct.
The correct answer is: overhead is an indirect cost which cannot be traced easily and
directly to specific units of product
