B) false

Explanation:

Absorption based costing (ABC) is best suited for companies that have wide overheads and diverse activities, i. e. need several cost pools. ABC allocates costs and resources to activities and the drivers are assigned to each activity, so the more complex processes are the ones that benefit the most from ABC.
