    C) $200.00

    Explanation:

    Absorption Product Cost = Direct Labor + Direct Materials + Variable Overheads + Fixed Overheads

    Thus, we need to Calculate the Total Cost of Goods Manufactured as follows:

    Direct materials used $160,000

    Direct labor $100,000

    Variable factory overhead $60,000

    Fixed factory overhead $80,000

    Total Cost of Goods Manufactured $400,000

    Then Calculate the product cost per unit

    Product cost per unit = Total Cost / Total Production

    = $400,000 / ($315,000/$225.00 + 600)

    = $400,000 / 2,000

    = $200.00

    Note : Total Production = Units Sold plus Ending Finished Goods Inventory
