    Activity Cost Pool Total Cost Total Activity

    Assembly $613,250 55,000 machine-hours

    Processing Orders $46,170 1500 orders

    Inspection $146,110 1,900 inspection-hours

    Annual machine-hours 1040

    Annual orders 60 times

    Annual inspection hours 30 hours

    Answer : $6,224.60 (B)

    $ $

    Sales ($120.80*360) 43,488

    Prime cost:

    Direct Materials (48.14*360) 17,330.4

    Direct labours (11.62*360) 4183.2 21,513.6

    Inspection costs (76.9*30) 2307 (15,749.8)

    Margin 6224.6

    Margin/unit = 6224.6/360 ⇒ $17.29
