step-fixed

Customer service employees are a ____________ cost.

$8 per customer call and $15 per development hour

Your Answer incorrect A company's total expected overhead for the year is $500,000. Two activity cost pools have been identified: Customer Service with a total cost of $200,000 and a total activity of 25,000 customer service calls; and Product Development with a total cost of $300,000 and total activity of 20,000 development hours. Using activity-based costing, calculate the appropriate activity rate(s).

$360,000
