Answer:

Activity rate = $176  per hour

Explanation:

Activity-based costing is a form of absorption costing where overheads are charged to product using cost drivers.  

Under this method, overheads are first analyzed and categorized by the activities responsible for them and then charged to product based on the amount of benefits enjoyed using cost drivers.  

Activity rate per driver is calculated as:
