10 Page 10 Which costs are allocated when the traditional method and ABC are used and to where are they allocated, examples of these types of costs Which costs--direct, indirect--are allocated and why they are allocated What are the management approaches/notions to allocation What is a cost object, cost driver, and a cost pool, how are they created, and how are they are used in cost allocation, which is determined first Be able to recognize which items are cost objects, cost drivers, and cost pools. Purpose of ABC and ABM and how they differ, and what are the goals of each Pros and cons of ABC Which of the 3 product costs differ when ABC is used instead of traditional, how are costs shifted when ABC is implemented Identify if a cost is over or undercosted, what causes overcosting, undercosting, what problems might result when over or undercosted. What type of costs are allocated under traditional? Under ABC? When is an activity base considered to be effective and why are volume-based bases considered ineffective? Identify problems associated with using traditional allocation and ABC How is ABC better than traditional? How does ABC alleviate over and under costing? What does a cause and effect relationship imply?
