The correct option is C,$84.19

Explanation:

In calculating selling price based on absorption costing approach, it is appropriate to factor in the following under-listed costs and returns:

The unit cost of the product of $61.50

The selling and administrative expenses totaling $814000

The 11% return on invested amount of $440000

Selling price computation:

Total of product cost ($61.50*38000)=$2,337,000

Selling and administrative expenses =$814,000

Return on investment($440000*11%)= $48,400

Total revenue                                       $3,199,400

Selling price per unit =$3199400 /38000

                                    =$84.19
