Which of the following statement(s) is/are true regarding activity-based costing?
(1) A cost pool is an activity which consumes resources and for which overhead costs are identified and allocated.
(2) An activity-based costing overhead absorption rate (OAR) is calculated in the same way as an absorption costing OAR, and will result in the same OAR being calculated for each cost pool.

B (2) only
C Neither (1) nor (2)
D Both (1) and (2)
C Neither (1) nor (2)
An activity cost pool is $480,000 and the total cost-driver volume is 12,000. A product uses 150 units of the driver..
Using ABC, what overhead is charged to that product (in $, to the nearest $)?
$6000
An ABC cost pool is $360,000 with driver volume 9,000; a product uses 120 driver units..
What overhead is charged ($, nearest $)?
