Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

The return on assets would be:

Return on assets (ROA)= Assets × Return

                                      = $45,000,000 × 12%

                                     = $5,400,000

Return per customer = ROA / Number of golfers

                                  = $5,400,000 / 400,000

                                  = $13.50

Fixed Cost per Customer = Fixed Cost / Number of golfers

                                          = $20,000,000 / 400,000

                                         = $50

Cost to be charged per customer = Profit + Fixed Cost + Variable Cost

                                                        = $13.50 + $50 + $15

                                                        = $78.50
