    The amount of set-up cost allocated to each product:

    Plus = $2,250 x 19 set-ups

    380 units

    = $112.50 per unit

    Max = $2,250 x 37 set-ups

    18,500 units

    = $4.50 per unit

    The correct answer is D

    Explanation:

    In order to obtain the amount of set-up allocated to each unit of Plus and Max, there is need to multiply the set-up cost per unit by the number of set-up for each product divided by number of each unit produced.
