    The $12,000 is the material handling cost should be assigned to products made in March.

    Thus, the correct option is a. $12,000

    Explanation:

    For computing how much of the material handling cost should be assigned, first we have to calculate the per pound of material. The formula is shown below:

    Per pound of material = Labor cost : Number of pounds

    = $160,000 : 800,000

    = $0.2 per pound of material

    Now, multiply this per pound of material with moving pounds.

    In mathematically,

    Material Handling cost = Per unit of pound * Moving material

    = $0.2 * 60,000

    =$12,000

    Hence, the $12,000 is the material handling cost should be assigned to products made in March.

    Thus, the correct option is a. $12,000
