    5.     A cost driver does not generally have a direct cause-effect relationship with the resources consumed.

Ans:, LO: 1, Bloom: C, Difficulty: Easy, Min: 1, AACSB: Reflective, AICPA BB: Industry/Sector Perspective, AICPA FN: Measurement, AICPA PC: Problem Solving, IMA: Cost Mgmt

    6.     The first step in activity-based costing is to assign overhead costs to products, using cost drivers.

Ans:, LO: 2, Bloom: K, Difficulty: Easy, Min: 1, AACSB: Reflective, AICPA BB: Industry/Sector Perspective, AICPA FN: Measurement, AICPA PC: Problem Solving, IMA: Cost Mgmt

    7.     To achieve accurate costing, a high degree of correlation must exist between the cost driver and the actual consumption of the activity cost pool.

Ans:, LO: 4, Bloom: C, Difficulty: Easy, Min: 1, AACSB: Reflective, AICPA BB: Industry/Sector Perspective, AICPA FN: Measurement, AICPA PC: Problem Solving, IMA: Cost Mgmt

    8.     Low-volume products often require more special handling than high-volume products.
