Answer:The activity rate for each activity of Company CC is:

Activity rate for cutting is $60 per dlh.

Activity rate for sewing is $15 per dlh.

Activity rate setup is $80 per setup.

Activity rate for inspection is $65 per inspection.

Explanation: Activity based costing trace overhead cost to each activity and absorbed at a rate for each activity rather than a rate per direct labour hour

Calculate activity rate for cutting

Cutting = cost of cutting / Number of labour hours

$90,000/1500 = $60 per direct labour hour

Calculate the cost of sewing

Sewing = cost of sewing / Number of labour hours

$22,500/1500 = $15 per direct labour hour

Calculate the cost of set up

Setup = cost of set up / number of set ups

$80,000 / 1000 = $80 per set up

Calculate the cost of inspection

Inspection = cost of inspection / number of inspection

$32,500 / 500 = $65 per inspection
