Answer: The activity rate for assembly is $16.67.

We need to calculate the activity rate for assembly activity.

The formula we use is:

[tex] Activity rate = \frac{Total Cost of activity}{No. of direct labor hours for the activity} [/tex]

We have:

Total cost of assembly = $200,000.

Total number of direct labour hours for assembly = 12,000 dlh (Product A : 2000 + Product B: 10000)

Substituting the values in the Activity Rate formula, we get,

[tex] Activity Rate = \frac{200,000}{12000} [/tex]

Activity Rate = $16.67
