Hi ruchi857 ,
I think there is something wrong with the question. Non Underlined portion has SV error. New Model COST. This should be COSTS.
Still, I will try to dissect this sentence for you.
Here I go:
[Clause 1] Henry Ford's factory was so efficient that
[Clause 2]by 1926 a new "Model T" costs $310,
[Modifier] as low a price as one-third of the original 1908 model.
The sentence says the factory was so efficient that a car model COSTS some price. (Costs is the verb here). Then it is followed a modifier.
This modifier is comparing $310 with the price of a different model.
A. as low a price as one-third of --> Wrong construction.
B. one-third of --> This tells $310 was one third of the another car itself.
C. a price one-third of what had been --> No need of Past Perfect
D. one-third the price of
E. one-third the price that had been on --> Same as C
