    The activity rate will be 20 per order.

    For product A it will be $8,000 applied

    for Product B it will be $6,000 applied

    Explanation:

    estimated cost / activity pool = rate

    14,000 / 700 = 20

    Applied cost:

    activity x rate

    Product A 400 x 20 = 8,000

    Product B 300 x 20 = 6,000
