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".
