AS/A Level Accounting - Absorption Costing (Part 2 - Allocation and Apportionment of Overheads)

[@bhaktiratnadhara1149]

The reapportionment of service cost centres is confusing and seems incorrect - the ratios (i might be wrong)

[@shiveditzz]

Is this Cambridge or edexcel ?

[@Spex07]

In cost units, what do you mean by they absorb indirect costs?

[@Spex07]

In reapportioning, what if the overhead costs are equal, what do we do then?

[@Sooniedoongiedori97039]

im pretty sure even that would we reapportioned as whichever service cost centre is providing services to other cost centre

[@taemurahmed2957]

Hey I think there's a mistake at the end in the ratio in which the service centre E and D are reappointed. Please correct me if I'm wrong

[@EdexWorld]

If you can clarify what you feel is a mistake, i can check and revert back.

[@Mahnooraleem6]

@@EdexWorld it says reapportion service by department E as 20% 10% 30% and 40% but in the answer it is reapportioned in a different order as 40% 30% 20% 10%

I concur, the teacher probably misunderstood which is okay.

[@emaliebelle1186]

I dont understand about the re apportionment of overheads stores ?

[@EdexWorld]

Please tell your specific doubt.

[@abdullahizahir755]

@@EdexWorld it is the elimination method where you divide the service cost among the ratios i think. i have a doubt on that part too

[@waniyaamir5088]

@ 17:30 i dont think the apportionment of power is correct, it should be 9222 and 6148

[@EdexWorld]

You are distributing power only between Machining and Assembly, but since power is used by all 4 departments, it shall be distributed between all departments in the ratio 3750:2500:750:250
