Question

Consider the following statements regarding traditional costing systems:

Answer 1

Answer:

Statement I and III

Explanation:

Under traditional costing, there is no such identification of various activity pools like activity costing, there is general allocation of overheads based on overhead assigned on labor hours, or machine hours etc:

This is the method in which volume of goods is important and that is what matters for cost allocation.

Further, when they require numerous activities and then the costs allocation based on each different process or activity is not possible as number of activities are really high.

Therefore Statement I and Statement III are correct.
