    c.$58,500

    Explanation:

    Contribution margin is the net of sale amount and variable cost. It is the amount of return available to recover the fixed cost and make profit from after that for the business.

    Price = $95,000 / 3,800 = $25 per unit

    Contribution per unit = $57,000 / 3,800 = $15

    Contribution Margin of 3,900 units = 3,900 x $15

    Contribution Margin of 3,900 units = $58,500
