In the lecture video I used Lay's Potato Chips and an imaginary company (Smith Co.) as examples to explain Process Costing. Please think about a real life manufacturing company (big or small) that would be a good fit for the Process Costing method. Explain why you feel that your company would be a good candidate for Process Costing (hint: look at the criteria). Also, describe how you believe the units of product move through the processing department(s) and how direct labor, direct material and manufacturing overhead cost are added in each department (keep in mind that direct labor and material in process costing are traced to processing departments rather than units of products). Finally, explain what allocation base you would suggest for the calculation of the predetermined overhead rate(s) in your processing departments and why. (Min. 150 words).
