    E) $14.00

    Explanation:

    cost: materials + labor + overhead

    materials 29,000

    labor 24,000

    overhead 17,000

    total 70,000

    unit cost: 70,000 / 5,000 = 14 per unit.

    The selling and administrative expenses are cost of the period. They are not capitalized through inventory. They are disclosure on the income statement.
