Increases or decreases of the cost driver base cause increases or decreases in the level of activity performed. Although it is easy to compute average costs of all types of resources over many activities, as in allocating all overhead according to the number of units produced, doing so may greatly distort the use of resources by activities and the cost of individual products and services.
