Conquest Machining Ltd. is a manufacturer of precision hand tools, is concerned with the apparent lack of controls over cost incurrence in its Pliers Division. The division has always used a plant-wide rate for allocating manufacturing overhead to its products. However, some products cost substantially more than competitors retail prices while others are substantially less. The division manager believes that a better cost allocation method can be developed.

ActivityCost DriverAllocation Rate
Material handlingNumber of parts$2.60 per part
Machine stampingMachine hours$60.00 per hour
