In a series–parallel circuit, how are individual component power dissipations calculated?

Power = Voltage times Current
Explanation:
In a series circuit, the voltage varies but the current is equal everywhere.
In a parallel circuit, the voltage drop across components is equal, but the current varies.
So, that's why power dissipation is different at different points.
