Kode Co. manufactures a major product that gives rise to a by-product called May. May's only separable cost is a $1 selling cost when a unit is sold for $4.

Has a cause-and-effect relationship.

Which items should be reviewed when making the upgrade decision?

I, II, III, and IV.

Which of the following costing methods provide(s) the added benefit of usefulness for external reporting purposes?

II only.

Which one of the following statements is true regarding absorption costing and variable costing?

If finished goods inventory increases, absorption costing results in higher income.

Actual sales values at the split-off point for joint products Y and Z are not known. For purposes of allocating joint costs to products Y and Z, the relative sales value at split-off method is used. An increase in the costs beyond split-off occurs for Product Z, while those of Product Y remain constant. If the selling prices of finished products Y and Z remain constant, the percentage of the total joint costs allocated to Product Y and Product Z will

Increase for Product Y and decrease for Product Z.

In a job-order cost system, the use of direct materials previously purchased usually is recorded as an increase in

Work-in-process control.

A joint process is a manufacturing operation yielding two or more identifiable products from the resources employed in the process. The two characteristics that identify a product generated from this type of process as a joint product are that it

Is identifiable as an individual product only upon reaching the split-off point, and it has relatively significant sales value when compared with the other products.

Activity-based costing (ABC) is a term used to describe allocation methods that are based on cause and effect (i.e., charging costs to whatever causes them). Why is this more important to project managers using job-order costing than those using process costing?

Job-order costing is used if the products or services sold are different enough to justify the additional cost involved in tracing costs to their cause. Charging all products or services a flat amount per unit shifts costs from those that cause them to those that do not.

By-products may have which of the following characteristics?

Zero Costs: Yes Additional Costs: Yes

Which of the following statement(s) is(are) true regarding the relationship between absorption costing net income and variable costing income?

Neither I nor II.

Net income is higher if absorption costing is used.

One hundred pounds of raw material W is processed into 60 pounds of X and 40 pounds of Y. Joint costs are $135. X is sold for $2.50 per pound, and Y can be sold for $3.00 per pound or processed further into 30 pounds of Z (10 pounds are lost in the second process) at an additional cost of $60. Each pound of Z can then be sold for $6.00. What is the effect on profits of further processing product Y into product Z?

No change.

What costs are treated as product costs under variable costing?

Only variable production costs.

The diagram represents the production and sales relationships of joint products P and Q. Joint costs are incurred until split-off; then separable costs are incurred in refining each product. Market values of P and Q at split-off are used to allocate joint costs. If the market value of P at split-off increases and all other costs and selling prices remain unchanged, then the gross margin of

P: Decreases Q: Increases

Cay Co.'s fixed manufacturing overhead costs for the month just ended totaled $100,000, and variable selling costs totaled $80,000. Under variable costing, how should these costs be classified?

Period Costs: $180,000 Product Costs: $0

Revenues over variable costs.

The management of a company computes net income using both absorption and variable costing. This year, the net income under the variable-costing approach was greater than the net income under the absorption-costing approach. This difference is most likely the result of

Sales volume exceeding production volume.

A manufacturing company prepares income statements using both absorption and variable costing methods. At the end of a period, actual sales revenues, total gross profit, and total contribution margin approximated budgeted figures, whereas net income was substantially greater than the budgeted amount. There were no beginning or ending inventories. The most likely explanation of the net income increase is that, compared to budget, actual

Selling and administrative fixed expenses had decreased.

Work-in-process control.
