    The correct anwer is C. 60.000

    Explanation:

    First, you have to calculate tthe total expected bowls that LeMay has to buy. In this case is 500.000 * 60% / 4 = 75.000. Then, subtract the expected bowls against the already delivered. In this case 75.000 * 55.000 = 20.000. Finally, multiply by the cost per bowl, to get the outstanding premiums to record: 20.000 * 3 = 60.000
