$1075000 ( C )

Explanation:

The gross profit margin is the metric used to determine the amount of money left over for a company after deducting the cost of producing sold goods from the Revenue generated from the sale of the goods. and it is usually represented as percentage of sales

To calculate Gross profit margin

(Revenue generated from sales - cost of sold goods)   ( equation 1 )

Revenue generated = 43000(units sold) * $75(unit price)

                                 = $3225000

cost of sold goods = unit cost * units sold

                                = $50 (unit cost ) * 43000 ( unit sold )

                                = $2150000

unit cost of production = total manufacturing cost / units manufactured

                                      = $2500000 / 50000 = $50

hence back to equation 1

= ( $3225000 - $2150000 ) = $1075000 ( C )

answer; (covenant); good luck
