Direct materials and Direct manufacturing labor are costs that can be easily traced to output, which in this case is the no. Of purses and backpacks produced.
Setup & Shipping are both a function of the number of batches produced.
Design is related to the no. Of designs related for each product
Plant utilities & administration results from general activity level in the plant. Thus, hours of production seems to be an appropriate cost driver.

Based on this analysis more than 50% of product costs related to direct materials. Managers should determine whether the material costs can be reduced producing in small lots , increase the setup and shipping costs. While both are relatively small components of product cost. Management may want to evaluate ways to reduce the number of setups and cost per setup.
