As you learned in the previous chapters, Current Designs has two main product lines $-$ composite kayaks, which are handmade and very labor$-$intensive, and rotomolded kayaks, which require less labor but employ more expensive equipment.

Diane has decided to use the following activities and costs to evaluate the methods of assigning overhead.
