Allocating overhead costs was simple: use broad averages to allocate costs uniformly regardless of how they are actually incurred Peanut-butter Costing The end-result: overcosting & undercosting 4 4 Over & Undercosting Overcosting – a product consumes a low level of resources but is allocated high costs per unit Undercosting – a product consumes a high level of resources but is allocated low costs per unit 5 5 Cross-subsidization The results of overcosting one product and undercosting another.
