3. Process costing systems and job-order costing systems both produce information on the costs of producing a firm's products, but each system is most appropriate for certain kinds of approaches to production. Explain what approaches to production job-order costing are most appropriate, and explain why job-order costing is appropriate in those approaches to production?

4. Nevada Appliance Company uses a job-order costing system and allocates overhead based on the cost of the installer's time. Annual installer's time was estimated at the beginning of the year to be $400,000 for the year, and company overhead was estimated to be $200,000 for the year.

If an installation job requires parts costing $100 and an installer's time costs $200, what would be the total cost of the job in this job-costing system? In this case, why would using a predetermined overhead rate be better than assigning actual overhead costs to each installation job?
