D. $166

Explanation:

The computation of the unit product cost is shown below:

= Direct material per unit + direct labor per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit + Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit

= $45 per unit + $20 per unit + $65 per unit + $35.71 per unit

= 165.71

The fixed manufacturing overhead per unit is computed by

= Fixed manufacturing overhead cost : number of units produced

= $500,000 : 14,000 units

= $35.71
