Answer:-
1. The correct flow of Manufacturing cost must be "Raw Materials>>Work In Process>>Finished Goods>>Cost of Goods Sold" as this the flow of Production process as well in Manfacturing Industries.
2. "Cheif Financial Officer;s Salary" must not be included in the valuation of Fished Goods Invesntory as this is an Indirect Expense and only direct expenses must be included as a cost for valuation purposes.
3. Job order costing or job costing is a
system for assigning manufacturing costs to an individual product
or batches of products. Generally, the job order costing system is
used only when the products manufactured are sufficiently different
from each other. (When products are identical or nearly identical,
the process costing system will likely be used.)
Since there is a significant variation in the products
manufactured, the job order costing system will create a job cost
record for each item, job or special order. The job cost record
will report the direct materials and direct labor actually used
plus the manufacturing overhead assigned to each job.
So Answer must be "Lumber Mill"
