    Great videos! :) I just noticed that in the Manag. acc. playlist they are not in sequence, like ABC 2 is before ABC 1 and some theory concepts are at the end of the list. Anyway, thanks a lot for those clear explanations. Cheers!

    Hello Ed, but what if the company produces just one product? For example, like in the case of your example company, what if it produces just skateboards? Is abc even worth performing?

  • @havardvab9075

  • @liutim6387

    How did you get the activity measure? Did you just randomly named it?

  • @erjonsk
    @erjonsk 7 років тому

    Hi, thank you for this. Would you say that ABC is equivalent to Job Order Costing with multiple allocation bases for each cost centre? Thx again, appreciated a lot the video.

    • @kebaletlole1443
      @kebaletlole1443 7 років тому

      I'm not too sure myself but isn't it job order costing the one where you take all your overheads and divide it by the cost driver in most cases being Direct Labour hours which at the end of the day is the plantwide rate or POHR, then ABC basically traces overheads to each cost driver.. which is why textbooks will tell you that ABC is the preferred method

    • @erjonsk
      @erjonsk 7 років тому +1

      Yes Keba, I think you're right. What ABC does differently from JOC is put in an additional layer of cost determinants enabling a more precise and obviously complex cost allocation. So my supposition above should be incorrect. Took me a couple months but I think I have it now :).

  • @waqasahmad6111

    Can we say the Cost pool is also called the " Activity centre " like Production centre and service centre .

  • @excaliberx2009
    @excaliberx2009 4 роки тому

    So I thought that support costs aren't related to MOH cost. It's more of a period cost
