B. Each product, or job, uses the department to a different extent.
Explanation:
Departmental overhead rates uses a standard charge that is based on produced units attributed to a department.
Costs are applied with high precision.
When this model is used, the standard rate is multiplied by the number of units produced in the department, so there is no over allocation of resources.
For example if we consider the hours a machine operates. With a standard rate of $10 per hour, machine operation of 6 hours will give $10* 6 hours= $60

Explanation:
The early part of the 21st century saw shocking financially improper activities by companies such as WorldCom and Enron exposed to the world. Investor Confidence was shaken and the government needed to do something to restore it.
This was why in 2002, the US Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley act that aimed to ensure that the actions of those companies were never repeated.
The act requires the following;
a) An effective Internal Control
The act requires that companies enact very effective Internal controls to detect financial irregularities and even went forward to make it the responsibility of the Top Executives to ensure that this is so.
b) Auditors must Evaluate Internal Controls.
Auditors had to change their auditing strategies that were deemed inefficient. They are now required to properly evaluate in-depth, the internal controls that a company adopts to be able to give an opinion on it and they do this based on the guidelines of the Public Accounting Board.
c) Auditor's work overseen by Public Accounting Board
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) was established by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with it's main purpose being to monitor and oversee auditors as they audit companies so that they may protect the public from false financial information. They set rules and standards that Auditors must follow and these rules in turn have to be approved by the Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC).
