    Option (c) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Sales (2,000 units) = $ 40,000

    Variable expenses = 24,000

    Contribution margin = 16,000

    Fixed expenses = 11,200

    Net operating income = $4,800

    Selling price per unit:

    = Sales : Number of units

    = $ 40,000 : 2,000

    = $20

    Contribution margin:

    = Sales - Variable costs

    = [ ($20 + $4) * (2,000 units - 200 units) ] - [ (24,000 : 2,000) * 1,800 units]

    = $43,200 - $21,600

    = $21,600

    Net operating income:

    = Contribution margin - Fixed expenses

    = $21,600 - $11,200

    = $10,400
