Answer:

a.$22 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the differential cost for producing product C is given below:

As we know that

Differential cost is the extra cost that to be incurred for producing or generating the product.

Since in the question it is given that there is an additional cost of $22 per pound so the same would be considered

hence, the option a is correct
