process costing is followed where output of one process is the input for the next process. Dependent activities as is called under PERT/CPM. (Programme evaluation and review technique / Critical path method)The wording suggest that the activities are dependent in a sequence and hence process costing can be made good use of.

me too in similiar industry, & doing costing work.. both can be employed, but for better results job costing should be adopted... bcoz it gives you analysis order/job wise & stock can also be maintained.
