Based on the information available in the question, we can answer as follows:-
Requirement A:-
The predetermined overhead activity rate for each activity is calculated as :-
=Total cost of the activity/Estimated use of cost drivers
Initial Concept Formation = $49,400/20
Inital Concept Formation = $2,470 per project change
(Note:- The cost of the Initial concept formation activity is not clearly visible. However, based on our observation it most probably resembles $49,400. Hence we have used the $49,400 in our calculation above. If it is $49,000, then the cost per project change will be = $2,450 per change)
Design = $260,000/130,000
Design = $2 per Square foot
Construction oversight = $122,850/ 105
Construction oversight = $1,170 per month
Requirement B:-
Initial Concept Formation - Product Level as the inital concept varies from product to product.
Design - Unit level as it varies from unit to unit.
Construction oversight - Batch level as the costs relate to the batch of units produced over the course of time(months).
