Cutting activity rate =$24/cutting hour
Assembly activity rate =$40/ assembly hour
Inspecting activity rate =$20/ inspecting hour
Reworking activity rate=$75/reworking hour

Cutting activity rate =$225600/(4000+5400)=$24/cutting hour
Assembly activity rate =$300000/(2850+4650)=$40/ assembly hour
Inspecting activity rate=$67500/(945+2430)=$20/ inspecting hour
Reworking activity rate=$45000/(150+450)=$75/reworking hour
Obviously you did not include the overheads incurred for each activity in your question,but I have the overhead for each activity in the attached full question with which I computed the required overhead activity rates
Answer:
$71.5
Explanation:
Inventory forecast is a way of predicting the volume of inventory required to fulfill future orders based on the existing production capacity and other plans relating to production
equation for forecasting inventory = $22 + 0.125 sales
Current sales = $300 million
Annual sales growth rate =32%
sales for next year = 300 + (300*32%)
300 + 96= $396 million
Applying the equation
Inventory = $22 + (0.125*396)
$22 + $49.5 = $71.5 million
