You need first to state both costs in current year prices.
For 3000 units, the cost is already in current year prices and is $13,000
For 1,000 units, to restate we use the index numbers and it is 3,700 x 155/121 = $4,740
Now you can use the high/low method as usual.
(The correct answer is B - $4.13)
@fatmath - you have calculated correctly, but at prices 2 years ago!
