The amount of inventories at the year end can be calculated as follows:
For Product A:
Original cost per unit * Units of inventory = R7 * 20 = R140
For Product B:
Original cost per unit * Units of inventory = R10 * 25 = R250
For Product C:
Original cost per unit * Units of inventory = R19 * 15 = R285
Total amount of inventories at the year end = R140 + R250 + R285 = R675
Therefore, the correct answer is: a. R675
