DEPARTMENT STRUCTURE
Fantastic, Inc. has two separate production departments - one for each
of the paint types. Since the end products are not distinguishable, the
company uses process costing employing a FIFO inventory.
Absorption costing is used for all outside reports. All non-direct fixed
costs are allocated using various allocation bases as indicated
throughout the project. The Company does not use a full ABC costing
system; however, it does employee some of the ABC concepts in the
budgeting process.
The administrative department handles all of the purchasing,
accounting, and secretarial duties in a highly efficient manner. The
need for separate departments is not necessary at this time.
