    Option (C) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Sale - Variable cost = Contribution Margin

    Contribution Margin - Fixed cost = Profit

    (Selling Price - Variable cost) * No of units sold = Target profit + Fixed costs

    ($60 - $40) * No of units sold = $40,000 + $400,000

    ($20) * No of units sold = $440,000

    No. of units sold = 22,000 units

    In order to earn a profit of $40,000, the company must sell 22,000 units.
