assume Due uses a traditional costing method and applies a single, predetermined overhead rate based on the number of assembly stations. 3. What is the total cost per bike of the Mountain Bike? 4. If Due uses traditional costing-compared to activity - based costing - would the Mountain Bike be over - costed or under-costed?
