For example, if both capital and labor inputs are doubled, output of the commodities is doubled. In other terms the production function of both commodities is " homogeneous of degree 1". The assumption of constant returns to scale CRS is useful because it exhibits a diminishing returns in a factor.

In this method cost is absorbed as a percent of the labour cost or the wages. (Overhead cost/Labour cost)x 100 If the Labour cost is 5000 and the overhead cost is 1000 then the absorption cost is 20%. If the labour cost of one job is 500 it will have to absorb 20% i.e. 100 as the overhead cost making the total cost to be 600.
