    Unit product cost = $84

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Units produced 8,700

    Direct materials $13

    Direct labor $55

    Variable manufacturing overhead $1

    Fixed manufacturing overhead $130,500

    The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

    Unitary fixed overhead = 130,500/8,700 = $15

    Unit product cost = 13 + 55 + 1 + 15 = $84
