Answer:

C. Calculate an activity cost allocation rate for each activity.

Explanation:

The final stage of ABC designing requires applying the cost driver rates to products.Therefore the cost driver must be measurable in a way that it enables it to be identified with individual products. Thus if set up hours are selected as a cost driver there must be mechanism for measuring the set up hours consumed by each product. These cannot be measured at the beginning of the company's year.
