Answer:

the total activity for the activity cost pool.

Explanation:

In Accounting, costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

Generally, an activity-based costing uses multiple cost pools such as manufacturing cost or customer services and multiple cost drivers such as direct labor hours worked, number of changes used in engineering department, etc.

Activity rate = total overhead cost/activity for the activity cost pool.
