    Account Billing Cost assigned to Department B = $24,750

    Explanation:

    Given activity and their respective cost drivers

    For Account Billing Activity Total cost = $220,000

    Cost driver = 4,000,000 lines

    Rate per line = $220,000/4,000,000 = $0.055 per line

    Provided Actual Activity of both departments

    Total lines assigned to Department B = 450,000 lines

    Thus Account Billing Cost assigned to Department B = $0.055 X 450,000 lines

    = $24,750
