For several years running, the Over-the-Top Buffet, a Las Vegas Burburr all-you-can-eat attraction, has been voted the best buffet by several publications. The Over-the-Top Buffet offers a seemingly unlimited selection of food. Menu items include fried chicken and waffles, made-to-order fresh sushi, a seafood station, prime rib, truffle scalloped potatoes, street tacos, made-to-order dessert crepes, a large chocolate fountain, and hundreds of other choices. The price paid by customers varies according to the time of day. Brunch is \($50\) per customer, while dinner is \($65\) per customer.

Questions:-

1. Suppose Burburr wants to know how much profit it earns per buffet customer. Would Burburr use a job costing system or a process costing system when determining the cost of the buffet per customer? Explain.

2. Why does Burburr need to know the cost of the buffet per customer? Do you think the buffet cost per customer will vary depending on the time of day and the buffet options offered with the brunch or dinner shifts?
