D) Losses that are above the expected levels and require further investigation.
What is an "abnormal loss" in a process costing system?
A) Losses that are within the expected or normal range.
B) Losses that occur due to inefficiencies, errors, or accidents beyond the normal expectation.
C) Losses that can be traced directly to specific departments.
D) Losses that are assumed to be permanent and do not need to be accounted for.

D) It is treated the same way as normal loss in process costing.
How is abnormal gain treated in process costing?

B) It is included in the cost of goods manufactured.
C) It is credited to the profit and loss account.
