Answer- The overhead applied to each unit of Product H9 under activity-based costing is closest to =$631.57 per unit.
Explanation- overhead applied to each unit of Product H9 = Total overhead applied to Product H9/ No. of units of Product H9
= $631572/1000 units
= $631.57 per unit
Where- Total overhead applied to Product H9 = Labor related+ Production orders+ Order size
= ($183.27 per hour*1000 hours)+ ($31.07 per order*600 orders)+ ($119.35 per machine hour*3600 hours)
= $183270+$18642+$429660
= $631572
