    Option A is the correct answer,$5810

    Explanation:

    The relevant of the Y51B is the cost of replacement, which is the open market price as it is actively being used by Yehle Inc.

    Besides, if the quantity currently in inventory is used it has to be replaced at open market price.

    Disposal value would have been used if the material in question is not being used

    The relevant of 700 liters is given below:

    $5.81*1000=$5,810

    1000 liters has to be bought not 700 liters as the least quantity available for sale is 1000 liters.

    Above, it would be wrong to choose option D as 700 liters is not available
