Job-Order Costing vs Process Costing

The video tutorial explains two main costing methods: job order costing and process costing. Job order costing is used for large, unique, and customizable items, where costs are accumulated by specific jobs. Process costing is used for mass-produced identical items, where costs are accumulated by processes. The tutorial details how direct and indirect materials and labor are applied in both methods, and how manufacturing overhead is estimated and allocated.

Explain the process of costing in mass production as described in the text.
