    A. True

    Explanation:

    The overheads are absorbed either by using an overall overhead rate or using ABC costing when there are two or more products. It is a company's policy decision to use either of the two methods for overhead absorption.

    The formula for calculating the Overhead Absorption Rate (OAR) is,

    OAR = Budgeted Overheads / Budgeted Activity Level

    Here, we have budgeted overheads as $1200000 while the budgeted activity over which overheads will be absorbed is Machine Hours.

    OAR = 1200000 / 100000 = $12 / Machine Hour so the Answer is True
