We are to solve for the price per unit. Let "x" be the price per unit.
The given values are the following:
Variable Cost = 1250,000 *x
Fixed Cost = $780,000
Net Profit = $650,000
Variable cost per unit = $19.85

The solution is shown below:
$650,000 = 1,250,000*x - $780,000 - $1,250,000*$19.85
x = $26, 242, 500 / 1,250,000 units
x = $20.994

The price per unit is $20.99 and the answer is letter "D".
