I am working on a short paper. Unfortunately, I am having some trouble on connecting the costing methods to a hospital. Would you be able to provide some assistance on how the below prompts work in a service organization such as a hospital?

• Costing Methods: Compare the job order and process costing methods, and explain how each of these can be applied to the company.
  • How could the costs differ if one method is chosen over the other?
• Factory Overhead: Outline possible indirect or overhead costs the company may need to account for, and identify the type of costing the company might use for these costs.
  • If the company decides to use activity-based costing (ABC), what are some activity bases (cost drivers) it might use to allocate these costs?
• Recommendation: Based on your analysis, recommend a costing method for the company, and explain why you think this method will work best for the business.
