    the cost per unit for product A is $9.50

    Explanation:

    Calculation of cost per unit for product A

    Direct Materials ($20,000/4,000) = $5.00

    Direct labor ($12,000/4,000) = $3.00

    Overheads ($54,000 / ($12,000+$24,000)) = $1.50

    Total cost per unit = $9.50

    Cost of Overheads per unit is equal to Overhead Absorption Rate per unit based on direct labor cost.
