Variable costing and absorption costing are the two most commonly used methods of inventory costing for manufacturing companies. The inventory method of variable costing takes place when total direct and indirect variable manufacturing costs are included within inventoriable costs. Fixed manufacturing costs however‚ are considered costs of the period under variable costing. The next method of inventory costing‚ absorption costing‚ includes all variable manufacturing costs as well as fixed manufacturing

Absorption and Variable Costing‚ Inventory Management Absorption and Variable costing are very important tools for cost accounting. Both of these costing methods allow you to see the cost of your inventory‚ in a different way. For example the absorption method allows you to assign all costs to the product‚ while variable costing allows only variable costs to be assigned to the product. Inventory management is extremely important as well because it ties into efficiency and lowering your costs

Experiment 3: Solution Calorimetry: Thermodynamics of Potassium Nitrate II. Abstract A determination of thermodynamic variables of KNO3 is presented. KNO3 was heated and dissolved in varying volumes of distilled water. Upon dissolution‚ the KNO3 solution was removed from heat and the temperature was recorded once crystals formed. For each solution‚ ∆G the Ksp were found with the temperature and molarity values. ∆H and ∆S were found through the linearization of the data with

THE MOMENTS OF A RANDOM VARIABLE Definition: Let X be a rv with the range space Rx and let c be any known constant. Then the kth moment of X about the constant c is defined as Mk (X) = E[ (X c)k ]. (12) In the field of statistics only 2 values of c are of interest: c = 0 and c = . Moments about c = 0 are called origin moments and are denoted by k‚ i.e.‚ k = E(Xk )‚ where c = 0 has been inserted into equation (12). Moments about the
