Question: the budget activity for product A and B was not added to your question. Below is the remaining part of your question and the answer.

Activity Cost Pool          Budgeted Cost      Product A        Product B

Activity 1                           $120,600              $3700               $3500

Activity 2                          $84,480                $5,900              $6,900

Activity 3                           $116,840               $3,200              $6,000

Answer:

Overhead per unit of Product A = $11.796

Explanation:

Activity 1 allocated to Product A = $120,600 * $3700  / ($3700  + $3500)

                                                      = $ 61975

Activity 2 allocated to Product A =  $84,480 *$5,900 / ($5,900+ $6,900 )

                                                       = $ 38940

Activity 3 allocated to Product A = $116,840 * $3,200 / ($3,200 + $6,000)

                                                      = $ 40640

Total allocated to Product A = $ 61975+ $ 38940 + $ 40640

                                               =  $141,555

Overhead per unit of Product A = Total allocated to Product A/Number of

                                                            units produced by product A

Overhead per unit of Product A = $141,555 / 12,000

Overhead per unit of Product A = $11.796
