The correct word for the blank space is: specific job; process.
Explanation:
The cost object represents the cost of an object or department for which that cost is assigned. For instance, the repairs department of a dealership is a cost object of the repairs employees and the repair supplies. Cost objects are usually traceable thus are treated as direct costs for accounting purposes.
Then, <em>the cost object of a job order is the specific job assigned</em>; <em>while the cost object of a process costing system is the process </em>itself.
in a scenario where it is dropping, it doesn't mean it won't come back up. So you would sell some but keep a few so if it went up you still make profit
