Answer Options

$990
C
$1,035
D
$495

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Material credit equals returned quantity multiplied by credit per unit.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: $67

$67 is below the supported result for material return credit; it likely omits part of the approved scope, cap, credit, or holdback.

Option C: $1,035

$1,035 is above the supported result for material return credit; it likely adds scope or money the rule does not allow.

Option D: $495

$495 is below the supported result for material return credit; it likely omits part of the approved scope, cap, credit, or holdback.

Memory Technique
