Answer:

D. 76.6 %

Explanation:

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

First Calculate the Contribution

= (60,000 units × $ 12.40) - ($110,000+$30,000+$34,000)

= $744,000 - $174,000

= $570,000

Then Calculate Contribution Margin Ratio

Contribution Margin Ratio = $570,000 / $744,000 × 100

= 76.61290

= 76.6 % ( 1 decimal)
