In this video lecture, I learned how service costs are allocated using the Direct Method first. Thank you for this video, Sir A!
Through this video lecture, I learned that the service departments exists to assists the other departments and they are necessary to the whole operation of the business. The costs in service department are classified under the overhead costs and there are three methods used which are direct method, step method, and algebraic method. Direct method simply means that the costs of the service department is allocated to the producing department directly. When computing for the amounts allocated to producing departments from the service departments, we must be careful on the bases that will be used because the bases differs from one department to another. Thank you po, Sir A!
Service cost allocation is the process of allocating the overhead costs of a supporting department to a producing department to zero out the overhead of the service department. The topics were well explained, and I was able to follow the process of computation. Thank you for this video, Sir A!
Thank you for the detailed explanation of service cost allocation using the direct method. I learned that there are three methods of allocating service costs and the Direct method is the simplest method. This lecture is very helpful for us to have a better understanding of the discussion.
I learned the direct method of service cost allocation in this video. We have two producing departments in this part. With this lecture, I was able to understand how to obtain the overhead rate. I discovered that service charges are categorized as overhead expenses because they are unrelated to manufacturing costs. The step method, the algebraic method, and the direct method are three ways to divide the cost of a service. The ideas were explained simply, and I could see how the computations were done. Thank you, Sir A!
This lecture taught me the importance of cost allocation in service costs. There are three methods to compute or allocate it: the direct method, the step-method, and the algebraic method. ty sir!💜
I learned in this video that the departments that exist to supports other department are called service departments within the manufacturing company, they are really important for the operation of the company. Allocation of the cost incurred in service departments is can be done in three method, direct, step, and algebraic method. Direct method is the simplest in the three, in this method, you're just going to allocate the cost directly to producing department. This video is helpful, thank you sir A.
Through this video, I learned that service charges are part of the overhead expenses since they are not related to production cost. I also learned the different methods that can be used to allocate a service cost which are the step method, algebraic method, and direct method. I was able to understand how the compute it. Thank you, Sir A!
I learned that since service charges are unrelated to production costs, they are classified as overhead expenses.

Service Cost Allocation refers to allocating the costs of a service or supporting department to zero out its OH costs. This type of department usually aids the producing department. One of the methods, Direct Method, was used in this video. The discussion, as expected, is smooth as always. Thank you, Sir A!
Upon watching this vidlec, I have learned that there are three methods commonly used to allocate support costs: (1) the direct method; (2) the sequential (or step) method; and (3) the algebraic and simultaneous method. In this vidlec, it tackles the simplest method which is the direct method on which it allocates costs to the operating departments directly, with no allocations to the other service departments. Thank you for explanation Sir!
In this video lecture, I have learned that departments are created to assist other departments. There are three methods of allocating service department costs, and in the video, it is mentioned that the first one is the direct method. Thank you, Sir A!
I was able to discover the purpose of the Service Department in this video lecture, which is to assist and support the Operating or Producing Departments. In this lesson, the concepts of service cost allocation have also been addressed. I appreciate you, Sir A, for providing the examples, it helped in my understanding of the subject.
In this lecture, I learned how to allocate service cost using direct method. I learned the purpose of the service department --- to support the operating or producing departments. I also learned that there are three methods to allocate service cost. In direct method, I learned that the service department must be zero out first and their cost will be allocated to the producing department. The illustration as well as the formulas helped me understand the process well.
In this video lecture, I have learned how to compute the Service Cost Allocation using the direct method. Wherein we are going to allocate the overhead cost from the service department to production. And after allocating, the service department will be zero, same with the maintenance. And I learned the different computations in service cost allocation problem. Thank you, Sir A!
Some departments exist to support other departments. That is the case of service departments intended for the producing department in this video. Because of that, service department costs are treated as a part of the overhead costs of the producing department. There are three methods of service cost allocation and the direct method is illustrated in this lecture. To solve this, we use the expected OH costs of the service department and allocate them to the producing department based on the basis of allocation. For instance, the Cafeteria’s basis for allocation is the number of employees and the Maintenance’s basis is the estimated factory overhead. Thank you for this, Sir A!
In this video lecture I learned about the service cost allocation using the Direct Method. The main concept in this lecture is that we will allocate the OH cost of the service departments to the producing departments. This allocation will zero out the OH cost of service depts. Then you will add all the OH cost allocated and the OH cost of the producing segment, the sum will be divided to the cost driver to get the OH rate. It is indeed simple to understand. Thank you, Sir A, for sharing this with us :)
After watching the video, I learned that Service Cost Allocation facilitates the management of a department's workplace and resources. The first method described in the video lecture is the direct method of service allocation, which involves assigning service department costs to production department costs. The direct method transfers the costs of a service department directly to the producing departments that utilize the department's services. It also delivers more precise and enhances resource use decisions. Sir A discussed the topics clearly, and I understood the computing process; nonetheless, I will rewatch this lecture to thoroughly comprehend the concepts and details of this topic. Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you for a comprehensive discussion Sir A! learned that there are three methods to compute allocate service costs and this video lecture discussed one of the method which is the direct method. The illustration helps me to understand and makes me easily comprehend the computation using the direct method.
In this video lecture, I learned that the direct method is the simplest method among the three for allocating service department costs. The three methods are direct, step, and algebraic. A service department exists to assist the operating department or producing department. Thank you sir, for this video lecture.
Service cost allocation concept talks about allocating OH cost of service to producing to zero out the corresponding amounts. It is important to acknowledge these costs because they are still relevant and serves as support to the whole operation of the company. There are three types of service cost allocation which are direct, step method, and algebraic method but the focus of this lesson is all about direct. Allocating the OH service cost using direct method is simply pro-rating est. dept OH of service costs to specified basis of the problem. (ex. cafeteria to # of employees) Thank you Sir A for the explanation!
I learned that there are three methods in computing the Service Cost Allocation, in this video we are focusing on the Direct method. Direct method is said to be the simplest way. From the name itself, it is allocated directly to the department. Indeed, I was able to learn it easily. Thank you, Sir A!!!
After watching the video lecture, I learned about the Service Cost Allocation using Direct Method. A portion of the terminology presented was familiar to me even before I saw the video because it has been discussed in previous video lectures.

Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you for a comprehensive discussion Sir A! Already watched this video lecture during our asynchronous session and in my review for midterms. May God bless you po!
The service departments provide assistance to producing departments for the operation of the business. There is also overhead in service departments, however, they are closed and distributed to producing departments. The distribution of these overheads is proportionally distributed according to the basis or factor of the said overhead. Once they are closed to the producing departments, the same process is used in getting the overhead rate per department, which can be either based on DLH or MH. Thank you, Sir A, for the brief and informative video!
As I watched the video, I learned that the direct method of allocating the expense of service departments to operating departments is seen as the simplest. By utilizing a suitable allocation base, the expenditures incurred by service departments are directly allocated to operational departments rather than being split among them as in the previous technique. In other words, we can say that the service supplied by a service department to itself and to other service departments is ignored by the direct method of departmental cost allocation. Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you for the informative lecture video, Sir A. I’ve already watched this during our asynch classes but forgot to post a comment as attendance. God bless you!
I've learned that service cost allocation is part of the manufacturing overhead, which refers to the other expenses that service departments incur during the period, and these departments are taken into account because they support the production department. There are three methods for calculating service cost allocation, but for this video, I learned about the simplest one, which is the direct method. Service costs are simply allocated to each producing department in this method. Thank you po, Sir A!

The service costs are first added to the overhead costs before getting the predetermined overhead rate. Thank you for another informative lecture video, Sir A!
The service department acts as support to other departments. Thus, there are three methods for service cost allocation, namely: direct method, sequential, and algebraic. Direct method is, by far, the simplest method of the three.
Thank you for this video lecture, Sir A!
done watching this vid a week before midterms, thank you so much sir!
This video is all about the technique for charging the cost of service departments to other parts of a business. The direct method transfers the cost of a service department directly to the production departments that rely on the services. Thank you, sir.
I learned that other departments exist to support a department, such as maintenance and cafeteria under the service dept. And one of the methods to allocate the service cost is called Direct Method. In this method, the dept OH costs will be carried over, while the cafeteria and maintenance costs should be zeroed out and distributed to producing department. I also learned how important to know the cost driver of each department to arrive at the correct costs. Thank you for this lecture video, Sir A!
The video lecture was comprehensive and I was able to analyze the computation because of the brief yet fruitful discussion with Prof A. Thanks again po!
Done watching this several weeks ago. Thanks again sir!
In this video lecture, I learned the purpose and importance of allocating service costs and how it is done using direct method. I can understand now why it is the simplest method to be used for I was able to understand it right away. Thank you for this lecture, Sir A!
Done watching for preparation for examination. Thank u sir
My takeaways are learning that there are three methods of allocating service costs: Direct, Step, and Algebraic Methods, and the importance of Service Costs in companies that support the operational or producing departments. In this video lecture, I learned how service costs are allocated using the Direct Method first. Thank you for this video, Sir A!
Thank you for this video lecture sir.
Through this video lecture, I learned that the service departments exists to assists the other departments and they are necessary to the whole operation of the business. The costs in service department are classified under the overhead costs and there are three methods used which are direct method, step method, and algebraic method. Direct method simply means that the costs of the service department is allocated to the producing department directly. When computing for the amounts allocated to producing departments from the service departments, we must be careful on the bases that will be used because the bases differs from one department to another. Thank you po, Sir A!
Service cost allocation is the process of allocating the overhead costs of a supporting department to a producing department to zero out the overhead of the service department. The topics were well explained, and I was able to follow the process of computation. Thank you for this video, Sir A!
Done watching sir A. Thank you for a very clear and concise explanation!
Done watching this video a couple of months ago but re-watching for our incoming finals. Very informative. Thank you so much po, Sir!
Thank you for the detailed explanation of service cost allocation using the direct method. I learned that there are three methods of allocating service costs and the Direct method is the simplest method. This lecture is very helpful for us to have a better understanding of the discussion.
I learned the direct method of service cost allocation in this video. We have two producing departments in this part. With this lecture, I was able to understand how to obtain the overhead rate. I discovered that service charges are categorized as overhead expenses because they are unrelated to manufacturing costs. The step method, the algebraic method, and the direct method are three ways to divide the cost of a service. The ideas were explained simply, and I could see how the computations were done. Thank you, Sir A!
Finished the videos before our departmental exam. Thank you so much, Sir!!
This lecture taught me the importance of cost allocation in service costs. There are three methods to compute or allocate it: the direct method, the step-method, and the algebraic method. ty sir!💜
I learned in this video that the departments that exist to supports other department are called service departments within the manufacturing company, they are really important for the operation of the company. Allocation of the cost incurred in service departments is can be done in three method, direct, step, and algebraic method. Direct method is the simplest in the three, in this method, you're just going to allocate the cost directly to producing department. This video is helpful, thank you sir A.
Through this video, I learned that service charges are part of the overhead expenses since they are not related to production cost. I also learned the different methods that can be used to allocate a service cost which are the step method, algebraic method, and direct method. I was able to understand how the compute it. Thank you, Sir A!
Rewatched this last night. Very helpful po, Sir!
I learned that since service charges are unrelated to production costs, they are classified as overhead expenses. Moreover, there are three ways to allocate the cost of a service: the step method, the algebraic method, and the direct method. The concepts were clearly taught, and I could understand how the calculations worked. Thank u, Sir A!
Service Cost Allocation refers to allocating the costs of a service or supporting department to zero out its OH costs. This type of department usually aids the producing department. One of the methods, Direct Method, was used in this video. The discussion, as expected, is smooth as always. Thank you, Sir A!
Wow. Nice Lecture. Reviewing my knowledge this academic break!
Upon watching this vidlec, I have learned that there are three methods commonly used to allocate support costs: (1) the direct method; (2) the sequential (or step) method; and (3) the algebraic and simultaneous method. In this vidlec, it tackles the simplest method which is the direct method on which it allocates costs to the operating departments directly, with no allocations to the other service departments. Thank you for explanation Sir!
In this video lecture, I have learned that departments are created to assist other departments. There are three methods of allocating service department costs, and in the video, it is mentioned that the first one is the direct method. Thank you, Sir A!
Watched this before answering the problem set. Thank you sir!
Done watching Sir. A. Thank you for explaining the solutions well!
I was able to discover the purpose of the Service Department in this video lecture, which is to assist and support the Operating or Producing Departments. In this lesson, the concepts of service cost allocation have also been addressed. I appreciate you, Sir A, for providing the examples, it helped in my understanding of the subject.
In this lecture, I learned how to allocate service cost using direct method. I learned the purpose of the service department --- to support the operating or producing departments. I also learned that there are three methods to allocate service cost. In direct method, I learned that the service department must be zero out first and their cost will be allocated to the producing department. The illustration as well as the formulas helped me understand the process well.
I've already watched this during our week five class po. Thankyou, Sir A.
Thank you for the informative lecture po Prof A.! I already watched this during our week 5 class and review for midterms exam. Thank you po again!
In this video lecture, I have learned how to compute the Service Cost Allocation using the direct method. Wherein we are going to allocate the overhead cost from the service department to production. And after allocating, the service department will be zero, same with the maintenance. And I learned the different computations in service cost allocation problem. Thank you, Sir A!
Some departments exist to support other departments. That is the case of service departments intended for the producing department in this video. Because of that, service department costs are treated as a part of the overhead costs of the producing department. There are three methods of service cost allocation and the direct method is illustrated in this lecture. To solve this, we use the expected OH costs of the service department and allocate them to the producing department based on the basis of allocation. For instance, the Cafeteria’s basis for allocation is the number of employees and the Maintenance’s basis is the estimated factory overhead. Thank you for this, Sir A!
Done watching, Sir A! Thank you for this lecture.
In this video lecture I learned about the service cost allocation using the Direct Method. The main concept in this lecture is that we will allocate the OH cost of the service departments to the producing departments. This allocation will zero out the OH cost of service depts. Then you will add all the OH cost allocated and the OH cost of the producing segment, the sum will be divided to the cost driver to get the OH rate.
It is indeed simple to understand. Thank you, Sir A, for sharing this with us :)
After watching the video, I learned that Service Cost Allocation facilitates the management of a department's workplace and resources. The first method described in the video lecture is the direct method of service allocation, which involves assigning service department costs to production department costs. The direct method transfers the costs of a service department directly to the producing departments that utilize the department's services. It also delivers more precise and enhances resource use decisions. Sir A discussed the topics clearly, and I understood the computing process; nonetheless, I will rewatch this lecture to thoroughly comprehend the concepts and details of this topic. Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you for a comprehensive discussion Sir A! learned that there are three methods to compute allocate service costs and this video lecture discussed one of the method which is the direct method. The illustration helps me to understand and makes me easily comprehend the computation using the direct method.
In this video lecture, I learned that the direct method is the simplest method among the three for allocating service department costs. The three methods are direct, step, and algebraic. A service department exists to assist the operating department or producing department. Thank you sir, for this video lecture.
Service cost allocation concept talks about allocating OH cost of service to producing to zero out the corresponding amounts. It is important to acknowledge these costs because they are still relevant and serves as support to the whole operation of the company. There are three types of service cost allocation which are direct, step method, and algebraic method but the focus of this lesson is all about direct. Allocating the OH service cost using direct method is simply pro-rating est. dept OH of service costs to specified basis of the problem. (ex. cafeteria to # of employees) Thank you Sir A for the explanation!
I learned that there are three methods in computing the Service Cost Allocation, in this video we are focusing on the Direct method. Direct method is said to be the simplest way. From the name itself, it is allocated directly to the department. Indeed, I was able to learn it easily. Thank you, Sir A!!!
After watching the video lecture, I learned about the Service Cost Allocation using Direct Method. A portion of the terminology presented was familiar to me even before I saw the video because it has been discussed in previous video lectures. I also learned that there are three methods for allocating service costs: direct, step, and algebraic. The concepts were effectively explained, and I was able to understand the computation process. Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you for a comprehensive discussion Sir A! Already watched this video lecture during our asynchronous session and in my review for midterms. May God bless you po!
The service departments provide assistance to producing departments for the operation of the business. There is also overhead in service departments, however, they are closed and distributed to producing departments. The distribution of these overheads is proportionally distributed according to the basis or factor of the said overhead. Once they are closed to the producing departments, the same process is used in getting the overhead rate per department, which can be either based on DLH or MH. Thank you, Sir A, for the brief and informative video!
As I watched the video, I learned that the direct method of allocating the expense of service departments to operating departments is seen as the simplest. By utilizing a suitable allocation base, the expenditures incurred by service departments are directly allocated to operational departments rather than being split among them as in the previous technique. In other words, we can say that the service supplied by a service department to itself and to other service departments is ignored by the direct method of departmental cost allocation.
Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you for the informative lecture video, Sir A. I’ve already watched this during our asynch classes but forgot to post a comment as attendance. God bless you!
I've learned that service cost allocation is part of the manufacturing overhead, which refers to the other expenses that service departments incur during the period, and these departments are taken into account because they support the production department. There are three methods for calculating service cost allocation, but for this video, I learned about the simplest one, which is the direct method. Service costs are simply allocated to each producing department in this method. Thank you po, Sir A!
Done watching this video months ago. Thank you so much sir!!
In this video lecture, I learned the first method in service cost allocation which is Direct Method. Also, I learned the significance of service department in supporting the producing/operating department. I was able to easily understand the computation using direct method because of the example given. Thank you, Sir A!
Thank you po Sir A! Done watching po since last 3 months.
Done watching po. Thank you po Sir A for this video lecture.
After watching the video lecture, I have learned that Service Department exist to support other departments, without them the other department will not function properly. There are three (3) method to allocate the service cost, the first one is using the direct method which is already tackled in this video lecture. Thank you, Sir A!
Already done watching this months ago. Thank you po sir for this informative and concise video lecture!
This lecture video made me realize the significance of service departments in supporting the other departments; hence their costs should also be appropriately allocated. And here, using the direct method, their costs will be distributed in the operating departments based on some defined basis of allocation. Thank you, sir A!
Finished watching this video lecture, thank you Sir!
Since the service cost allocation contributes to a significant amount of departments in a business in sustaining the working conditions of personnel and materials, the aforementioned video has helped me to realize the importance of knowing it. At first, the service cost allocation using the direct method seems a little complex, but after viewing it again, I see that it is really not that difficult. I appreciate your thorough presentation, sir.
After watching this video, I realized the significance of allocating service cost to production departments by using direct method. Service cost allocation can provide more accurate product cost information Thank you, Sir A!
This video is new to my eyes so it is quite complicated at first but after finishing the video lecture, I learned its functions and how to compute the service cost allocation. Using this method and with the help of illustration, I quickly understand the method.
already watched this last december. thank you, sir!
Thank you sir! I learned that there are three methods to compute/allocate service costs, and this video lecture discussed one of the method which is the direct method. I had no idea how it works, and now I have an idea how's the computation/ how to allocate service cost using direct method. Thank you again sir!
Thank you very much sir A. I was able to acquire the Direct technique of service cost allocation from this video lesson. There are three different ways to divide up service costs. I was able to learn more about the subjecr by using the provided illustration. Thank you sir A!
I watched this last November, sir. I forgot to leave a comment. Thank you po for this comprehensive video lecture!!!
Done watching Sir A. Thanks for fruitful discussion! In this video lecture Ive learned Service Cost Allocation use to allocate Service Cost because Service departments supports all of other departments and also incurred cost . There are 3 methods of allocating service cost. In this video lecture it discusses the first method which is Direct Method in which the simpliest and it is for charging the cost of service departments to other parts of a business. This concept is used to fully load operating departments with those overhead costs for which they are responsible. Service department cost will be allocated to the operation departments base on some define basis. In this video lecture the example used is cafeteria and maintenance in which supports the operation departments.
