Advantages and disadvantages of variable costing Many managers use variable costing for internal reporting and decision making since it has number of advantages (Myers par. 1). First‚ on variable costing reports costs are organized by behavior which makes it easier to understand. Also‚ variable costing statements facilitate cost volume profit (CVP) analysis because it separates cost behavior by fixed and variable. Under variable costing‚ changes in inventory or production do not affect the

Activity Based Costing and the Theory of Constraints are‚ respectively‚ Overhead Absorption Costing and Marginal Costing in a different guise Introduction In this assignment I will be investigating the assertion that Activity Based Costing and the Theory of Constraints are‚ respectively‚ Overhead Absorption Costing and Marginal Costing in a different guise. To analyse this statement I will compare ABC with Overhead Absorption Costing and Theory

A removal process consisting of absorption‚ desorption‚ heat exchangers and auxiliary equipment is shown in Figure 10. Absorption is traditionally performed in a column with plates‚ random packing or structured packing. CO2 containing gas flows upwards and the absorption liquid flows downwards. The solvent (rich amine) is pumped further through a heat exchanger to a separation column. The absorbed CO2 is regenerated in a separation (stripper) column. Heat is added to the reboiler and a condenser

Introduction At any particular wavelength the absorption of light when visible light passes through a solution depends on two factors: * The length of the light path * The concentration of the colored path The connection of these two variables is known as the Beer-Lambert Law: Absorbance (A) = ε c l Where ε is the absorption coefficient C is the concentration of the compound And l is the length of light usually 1cm When I is constant‚ this proves a linear relationship between

Introduction to Standard Costing Standard costing is an important subtopic of cost accounting. Standard costs are usually associated with a manufacturing company’s costs of direct material‚ direct labor‚ and manufacturing overhead. Rather than assigning the actual costs of direct material‚ direct labor‚ and manufacturing overhead to a product‚ many manufacturers assign the expected or standard cost. This means that a manufacturer’s inventories and cost of goods sold will begin with amounts reflecting
