In the past, the Engine Enhancement division located at the Oakville plant has used a manufacturing support cost allocation rate based on machining hours. Recently, management has decided to pilot activity-based costing and has chosen its alternator production department for this project. The division produces three alternator models: Basic, Do-it-yourself (DIY) and Heavy Duty. The following information has been obtained from the company's records over the past year:

Required
1. Determine the unit cost of each product using activity-based costing
2. Based on the results of the activity-based costing pilot, the selling price of the DIY alternator to Apexcustomers is currently about $3 per unit below total costs. The management team initially considered discontinuing production of the DIY alternator. The marketing manager indicated that the price of the DIY alternator could not be raised, as it is already somewhat higher than a major competitor's equivalent product. Using the information provided in part 1, what other actions might Apex consider to increase profitability of the DIY alternator? Provide at least four specific ideas.
