    Option (a) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Contribution per unit:

    = Selling price per unit - Variable cost

    = Selling price per unit - (Material + labor cost)

    = $25 - ($10 + $5)

    = $25 - $15

    = $10

    Fixed cost = Administrative cost + Sales and marketing expense

    = $60,000 + $20,000

    = $80,000

    Break-even quantity:

    = Fixed cost : Contribution per unit

    = $80,000 : $10

    = 8,000 shirts
