Answer:

Job order versus Process Costing

Industries using job order costing:

Business consulting

Web designer

Designer clothes manufacturing

Industries using process costing:

Steel manufacturing

Computer chip manufacturing

Candy making

Step-by-step explanation:

In job order costing, the manufacturer tracks its prime costs to individual products or jobs. This means that the costs of each job can be computed separately because costs are traced to each job. Under process costing, the prime costs are tracked to the department or process or batch, and not to individual products or jobs.
