True or false: unfortunately, many automated processes generate costs that have no cause and effect?

relationship with volume-based cost driversTrue or false: unfortunately, many automated processes generate costs that have no cause and effect?
I have seen this many times in Industry because of


various intermittent problems with machinery...


My job is to maintain the machinery in a number of places.


The nature of the problems cannot be determined and so


these problems are ';of unknown cause';. But also, the


';effect'; is not recognized because the corporate owners


do not wish to admit to lack of quality control for the product.


Consumers may notice and say nothing, and so the cycle


continues over and over.
