A: Fixed overheads are ignored in marginal costing. R: Marginal costing only considers variable costs for decision making. Choose the correct option.
A. A is true but R is false
B. A is false but R is true
C. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
D. Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
In marginal costing, fixed overheads are treated as period costs and are not included in the cost of production. This is because marginal costing focuses on variable costs for short-term decision making. Both are true, but R is the underlying principle, not just an explanation of ignoring fixed costs.
A company issues 10% debentures of ₹100 each at a discount of 5%, redeemable at a premium of 10%. What is the total loss on issue per debenture to be written off over the life of the debenture?
