After reading Chapter 4 and reviewing the online videos, you should have a good understanding of process costing and its applications to manufacturing companies. In the materials, you learned the similarities and differences between process costing and job-order costing discussed in Chapter 2 and what types of manufacturing and service companies might use each. I want you to now specifically think about the automobile manufacturing industry and specifically about a domestic producer such as Ford Motor Company. From what you know about process costing and job-order costing, which costing method do you think Ford Motor Company uses? Or, alternatively, is it possible to use both? As a hint, many automobile manufacturers mass produce their parts and then customize a vehicle to an order. Why do you think Ford Motor Company might use one costing methodology or a combination of costing methodologies and what are some examples of products produced that necessitate such method(s)?
