Peter's Printers has contracts to complete weekly supplements required by forty-six customers. For the year 2019, manufacturing overhead cost estimates total $350,000 for an annual production capacity of 1 million pages.

For 2019, Peter's Printers has decided to evaluate the use of additional cost pools. After analyzing manufacturing overhead costs, it was determined that number of design changes, setups, and inspections are the primary manufacturing overhead cost drivers. The following information was gathered during the analysis:

Cost pool Manufacturing overhead costs Activity level

Design changes $60,000 400 design changes

Setups 250,000 5,000 setups

Inspections 40,000 10,000 inspections

Total manufacturing overhead costs

$350,000

During 2019, two customers, World Makers and Happy Studios, are expected to use the following printing services:

Activity. World Makers Happy Studios

Pages: 8,000 76,000

Design changes: 10 0

Setups: 20 10

Inspections: 30 38
