If the hospital is currently using the direct method, do you think (based on the differences you see) that they should switch to the sequenƟal
method?
By using the direct method, the hospital is ignoring the services the supporƟng departments provide to the other service departments. The direct
method is the least accurate method of calculaƟng and allocaƟng overhead costs to the appropriate departments. By comparing the data
between these two methods, we see that more costs are accounted for in the sequenƟal method. In the sequenƟal method, we see that the
maintenance, cafeteria, general admin, and housekeeping departments allocate their costs to each department, which accounts for more of the
usage of funds across these supporƟng and producing departments.
