    A. $310,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of charitable contributions is shown below:

    = Contributed cost towards youth and educational programs + Contributed cost towards health and human service organizations.

    = $250,000 + $60,000

    = $310,000

    The contribution cost towards health and human service organizations is calculated by applying the formula which is shown below:

    = Contribution cost towards heath and human service organizations - employee deduction

    = $140,000 - $80,000

    = $60,000

    The Company's commitment to the environment is not a charitable contribution. Thus, it is ignored.

    A. $310,000

    Explanation:

    With the provided information we have,

    Charitable contributions on part of company shall include:

    Amount contributed to youth and educational programs = $250,000

    Amount contributed to health and human service = $140,000

    Less: Amount contributed by employees from their salary = ($80,000)

    = $310,000

    Redesigning product packaging does not relate to contribution to charitable trust or charitable purposes.

    Thus, correct answer is

    A. $310,000
