    The option d is correct.

    Explanation:

    The high low method shows the difference between the high and low cost of a particular thing. In the given question, the high cost is $3,600 and the low cost is $2,700 whereas the high machine hour is 18000 and low machine hour is 10,000.

    Now, the formula for high low method is calculated. It is shown below:

    High low method = (High cost - Low cost) : (High machine hours - Low machine hours)

    = ($3,600 - $2,700) : (18000 - 10,000)

    = 900 : 8000

    = 0.11

    Thus, the option d is correct.
