Multiple Choice
Twista Manufacturing has the following activities and activity costs per year: Machining ($20 000) ; Forklifting ($10 000) ; machine setup ($32 000) , and quality inspection ($40 000) . The operation starts with setting up the machines; each batch of products requires a different setup. This is followed by machining, where the cost of machining varies directly with the number of machine hours. Forklifts are used to move the work in progress around.
