Question 2. 2. (TCO A) A cost incurred in the past that is not relevant to any current decision is classified as a(n) (Points : 6)

period cost. incremental cost. opportunity cost. None of the above

Question 3. 3. (TCO A) The cost of lubricants used to grease a production machine in a manufacturing company is an example of a(n): (Points : 6)

period cost. direct material cost. indirect manufacturing cost. direct labor cost. None of the above

Question 4. 4. (TCO A) When the activity level is expected to increase within the relevant range, what effects would be anticipated with respect to each of the following? (Points : 6)

Fixed costs per unit increase and variable costs per unit increase. Fixed costs per unit decrease and variable costs per unit do not change. Fixed costs per unit do not change and variable costs per unit do not change. Fixed costs per unit do not change and variable costs per unit increase.

Question 5. 5. (TCO F) Emco Company uses direct labor cost as a basis for computing its predetermined overhead rate. In computing the predetermined overhead rate for last year, the company included in direct labor cost a portion of indirect labor. The effect of this misclassification will be to (Points : 6)

understate the predetermined overhead rate. overstate the predetermined overhead rate. have no effect on the predetermined overhead rate. This cannot be determined from the information given.

Question 6. 6. (TCO F) A job-order cost system is employed in those situations where (Points : 6)

many different products, jobs, or batches of production are being produced each period. manufacturing involves a single, homogeneous product that flows evenly through the production process on a continuous basis. the product moves from department to department before being completed. the unit cost of production is computed by dividing the total production costs by the number of units produced.

Question 7. 7. (TCO F) The weighted-average method of process costing differs from the FIFO method of process costing in that the weighted-average method (Points : 6)

can be used under any cost-flow assumption. does not require the use of predetermined overhead rates. keeps costs in the beginning inventory separate from current period costs. does not consider the degree of completion of units in the beginning work-in-process inventory when computing equivalent units of production.

Question 8. 8. (TCO B) The contribution margin ratio always increases when the (Points : 6)

break-even point increases. break-even point decreases. variable expenses as a percentage of net sales decrease. variable expenses as a percentage of net sales increase.

Variable expense per unit Variable expense per unit/Selling price per unit Fixed expense per unit (Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit) /Selling price per unit.

Question 10. 10. (TCO E) In an income statement prepared using the variable costing method, fixed manufacturing overhead would (Points : 6)

not be used. be used in the computation of the contribution margin. be used in the computation of net operating income but not in the computation of the contribution margin. be treated the same as variable manufacturing overhead.
