Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The total manufacturing cost per unit is calculated by adding the materials cost per unit to the conversion cost per unit. The materials cost per unit is $90000 / 10000 units = $9. Adding the conversion cost per unit of $6 gives a total manufacturing cost per unit of $15.
