    Correct answer is C. $ dollars.

    Calculation:

    Rate of Retun PU = (21%*605,000) / 58,700 = 2.16

    Fixed factory overhead PU = 38,500/58,700 = 0.66

    Fixed selling and administration PU = 8000/58,700 = 0.14

    Variable DM PU = 5.17

    Variable Labour PU = 1.88

    Variable FOH PU = 1.33

    Variable selling and Admin PU = 4.5

    By adding all above mentioned per unit cost we get 15 dollars aprox

    so

    Correct answer is 15 dollar.
