Answer:

a. $176,200

Explanation:

The computation of the dollar amount of sales must be made to produce the target income is shown below:

= (Fixed cost + target monthly income) ÷ contribution margin ratio

= ($74,000 + $14,100) ÷ 50

= $176,200

Hence, the dollar amount of sales must be made to produce the target income is $176,200

Therefore the option a is correct
