Rundle Sporting Goods Corporation makes two types of racquets, tennis and badminton. The company uses the same facility to make both products even though the processes are quite different. The company has recently converted its cost accounting system to activity-based costing. The following are the cost data that Jane Price, the cost accountant, prepared for the third quarter of 2018 (during which Rundle made 69,000 tennis racquets and 29,800 badminton racquets).

Direct Cost	Tennis Racquet (TR)			Badminton Racquet (BR)
Direct materials	$	18.10	per unit	$	14.80	per unit
Direct labor		32.50	per unit		25.30	per unit

Category	Estimated Cost			Cost Driver	Amount of Cost Driver
Unit level		$	640,000	Number of inspection hours	TR: 14,600 hours; BR: 5,400 hours
Batch level			334,800	Number of setups	TR: 79 setups; BR: 45 setups
Product level			150,000	Number of TV commercials	TR: 4; BR: 1
Facility level			540,000	Number of machine hours	TR: 30,400 hours; BR: 29,600 hours
Total		$	1,664,800

Inspectors are paid according to the number of actual hours worked, which is determined by the number of racquets inspected. Engineers who set up equipment for both products are paid monthly salaries. TV commercial fees are paid at the beginning of the quarter. Facility-level cost includes depreciation of all production equipment.
