    Option (A) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Assembly:

    Total Cost = $1,114,920

    Total activity = 57,000

    Processing orders:

    Total Cost = $47,016

    Total activity = 1,800

    Inspection:

    Total Cost = $107,328

    Total activity = 1,560

    Units produced = 430

    Cost per activity for Assembly:

    = Total Cost : Total activity

    = $1,114,920 : 57,000

    = $19.56

    Cost per activity for Processing Orders:

    = Total Cost : Total activity

    = $47,016 : 1,800

    = $26.12

    Cost per activity for Inspection:

    = Total Cost : Total activity

    = $107,328 : 1,560

    = $68.8

    Cost for 430 unit Activities for Assembly:

    = Cost per Activity * Activities for total 430 units

    = $19.56 * 1,120 machine-hours

    = $21,907.2

    Cost for 430 unit Activities for Processing orders:

    = Cost per Activity * Activities for total 430 units

    = $26.12 * 40 orders

    = $1,044.8

    Cost for 430 unit Activities for Inspection:

    = Cost per Activity * Activities for total 430 units

    = $68.8 * 30 inspection-hours per year

    = $2,064

    Total costs:

    = Cost for 430 unit Activities for Assembly + Cost for 430 unit Activities for Processing orders + Cost for 430 unit Activities for Inspection

    = $21,907.2 + $1,044.8 + $2,064

    = $25,016

    Product margin for product S78N:

    = Sales - Total Costs

    = (430 * 129.90) - [430 x ($49.81 + $12.34) ] - $25,016

    = $55,857 - $26,724.5 - $25,016

    = $4,116.5
