The activity rate for the Labor-Related activity cost pool under activity-based costing is closest to:______.

$32.16

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                        Estimated                   Expected Activity

                      Activity      Overhead

                     Measures     Cost            Product Z9      Product N0       Total

Labor-related     DLHs      $328,018           6,800             3,400          10,200

Product testing  tests           47,747              600                 700            1,300

Order size          MHs         473,108            4,400              4,700           9,100

                                        $848,873

The activity rate for the Labor-Related activity cost pool:

= Labor Overhead Cost divided by Total Direct Labor Hours

= $328,018/10,200

= $32.16
