    The correct answer is B.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Sales $ 564,400

    Variable expenses 312,800

    Contribution margin 251,600

    Fixed expenses 193,800

    Net operating income $ 57,800

    First, we need to calculate the new net operating income. Then, compare it to the old one and calculate the percentual change.

    Sales = 564,400*1.19 = 671,636

    Variable expenses = (312,800*1.19) = (372,232)

    Contribution margin = 299,404

    Fixed expenses = (193,800)

    Net operating income = 105,604

    %change = (income 1 - income 0) / income 0

    %change = (105,604 - 57,800) / 57,800 = 0.827 = 83%
