Question 1 Overhead costs are assigned to production using an overhead application rate,
Correct whereas no such application rate is used to assign the costs of direct materials
and direct labor to production. The reason for this difference in procedures is

that:
of 3.00
Select one:
a. overhead is an indirect cost which cannot be traced easily
and directly to specific units of product
b. independent of both the number and the type of products
manufactured and also independent of the amount of overhead
costs incurred
c. traceable directly to the products manufactured but
independent of the amount of overhead costs incurred
d. independent of the type and number of units manufactured
but a casual factor in the amount of overhead cost incurred
Your answer is correct.
The correct answer is: overhead is an indirect cost which cannot be traced
easily and directly to specific units of product
