$8,440.
B.
$21,100.
C.
$1,000,000.

Computation of Required Sales to earn a target profit of $22,000:
Required Sales = (Fixed Cost+Target Profit)/Contribution Margin Ratio
Here,
Fixed Cost = $400,000
Target Profit = $22,000
Contribution Margin Ratio = (Sales price per unit - Variable cost per unit)/Sales price per unit = ($50 - ($50*60%))/$50 = 40%
Required Sales = ($400,000+$22,000)/40% = $1,055,000
So, the correct option is D "$1,055,000".
