Overhead costs are assigned to production using an overhead application rate, whereas no such "application rate" is used to assign the costs of direct materials and direct labor to production. The reason for this difference in procedures is that:Multiple ChoiceOverhead is an indirect cost which cannot be traced easily and directly to specific units of product.Overhead is always larger in dollar amount than either direct materials or direct labor.The amounts of direct material and direct labor applicable to each unit of production cannot be determined as easily as the amount of overhead.Overhead is always equal to a constant percentage of direct labor costs.

A key idea in process costing that refers to the number of whole units that could have been started and completed given the costs incurred in a period is known as:Multiple ChoiceManufacturing overhead.Units in process.A job cost sheet.Equivalent units of production.Production cost report.

The cost of workers who assist in, or supervise, the manufacturing process, not linked to specific units of product is called:Multiple ChoiceUnspecified labor.Direct labor.Indirect labor.Basic labor.Joint labor.

The difference between actual overhead costs incurred and the budgeted (flexible) total overhead at actual units produced is the:Multiple ChoiceVolume variance.Price variance.Quantity variance.Production variance.Controllable variance.
