Which of the following statements is/are correct?(i) A by-product is a product produced at the same time as other products which has a relatively low volume compared with the other products(ii) Since a by-product is a saleable item it should be separately costed in the process account, and should absorb some of the process costs(iii) Costs incurred prior to the point of separation are known as common or joint costs

A

(i) and (ii)

B

(i) and (iii)

C

(ii) and (iii)

D

(iii) only

Chapter12Processcosting,jointproductsandby-products

Statement (i) is incorrect because the value of the product described could be relatively high even though the output volume is relatively low. This product would then be classified as a joint product.Statement (ii) is incorrect. Since a by-product is not important as a saleable item, it is not separately costed and does not absorb any process costs.Statement (iii) is correct. These common or joint costs are allocated or apportioned to the joint products.

A

$7,500

B

$16,000

C

$17,000

D

$24.500

A cost centre had an overhead absorption rate of $4.25 per machine hour, based on a budgeted activity level of 12,400 machine hours.In the period covered by the budget, actual machine hours worked were 2% more than the budgeted hours and the actual overhead expenditure incurred in the cost centre was $56,389.What was the total over or under absorption of overheads in the cost centre for the period?

A

$1,054 over absorbed

B

$2,635 under absorbed

C

$3,689 over absorbed

D

$3,689 under absorbed
