    The correct answer is C

    Explanation:

    Cost of Sales or COGS is defined as the carrying value of the goods sold during the specific period or year.

    The formula for computing the Cost of Sales is as:

    Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)

    where

    Sales is $5,456,650

    Gross Profit is $2,554,391

    Putting the values above:

    $2,554,391 = $5,456,650 - Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)

    So,

    Cost of goods sold (COGS) = $5,456,650 - $2,554,391

    Cost of goods sold (COGS) = $2,902,259
