overview of job order and process costing systems

Prepare a 750-1,000-word essay using Microsoft Word providing an overview of job order and process costing systems, including the characteristics and types of organizations that would use the costing systems to help support the leader’s competitive strategies. Provide 2 examples of organizations that would use job order costing and 2 examples of organizations that would use process costing. In addition, explain how each costing system is used in each organization selected. Please remember that job order and process costing are distinct from one another and typically focus on manufacturing companies. In addition, activity-based costing is not a type of job order or process costing.

The essay must have a minimum of 750 words and a maximum of 1,000 words. The objective is to learn how to synthesize course material in a clear and concise manner.

Include a biblical integration of an organization’s use of the different costing systems.

Current APA formatting must be followed, excluding an abstract and table of contents.

Cite the course textbook and at least 4 scholarly articles from professional accounting and business journals. Wikipedia, Investopedia, and other popular sources are not considered scholarly sources and should NOT be used. Articles from websites are good supplemental resources, but the bulk should come from scholarly journals. Please be sure to review the Online Writing Center’s webpage, “Choosing Appropriate Resources for Academic Papers,” as it specifically outlines Liberty University’s acceptable resources.
