Cain Components manufactures and distributes various plumbing products used in homes and other buildings. Over time, the production staff has noticed that products they considered easy to make were difficult to sell at margins considered reasonable, while products that seemed to take a lot of staff time were selling well despite recent price increases.

The intern identified the following cost pools and, after discussion with some plant personnel, appropriate cost drivers for each pool.
