Which of the following statements about using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor is correct? Using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor-hours will ensure that direct labor costs are correctly traced to jobs. It is often overly simplistic and incorrect to assume that direct labor-hours is a company's only manufacturing overhead cost driver. The labor theory of value ensures that using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor will do a reasonably good job of assigning overhead costs to jobs. Using a plantwide overhead rate based on direct labor costs will ensure that direct labor costs will be correctly traced to jobs.

It is often overly simplistic and incorrect to assume that direct labor-hours is a company's only manufacturing overhead cost driver.

The general model for calculating a quantity variance is: Actual quantity of inputs used × (Actual price − Standard price). Actual price × (Actual quantity of inputs used − Standard quantity allowed for output). (Actual quantity of inputs used × Actual price) − (Standard quantity allowed for output × Standard price). Standard price × (Actual quantity of inputs used − Standard quantity allowed for output).

costs incurred during the current period plus cost of beginning work in process inventory.

A reason why absorption costing income statements are sometimes difficult to interpret is that: they omit variable expenses entirely in computing net operating income. they shift portions of fixed manufacturing overhead from period to period according to changing levels of inventories. they ignore inventory levels in determining cost of goods sold. they include all fixed manufacturing overhead on the income statement each year as a period cost.

they shift portions of fixed manufacturing overhead from period to period according to changing levels of inventories.

An activity-based costing system that is designed for internal decision-making will not conform to generally accepted accounting principles because: activity-based costing results in less accurate costs than more traditional costing methods based on direct labor-hours or machine-hours. activity-based costing has not been approved by the United Nation's International Accounting Board. under activity-based costing the sum of all product costs does not equal the total costs of the company. under activity-based costing some manufacturing costs (i.e., the costs of idle capacity and organization-sustaining costs) will not be assigned to products.
