B. $ 12 comma 600 comma 000

Explanation:

15,000 units x $700 cost per unit = 10,500,000 total cost

markup policy for the firm: 20% of total cost

the sales price will be the total cost for the order plus a 20% of that cost as a gross profit margin.

sales price = cost x (1 + 20%)

sales price = total cost x 1.20

sales price = 10,500,000 x 1.2 = 12,600,000
