The answer is: C) $3,000

Explanation:

The standalone selling price is the price at which the company would sell warranty separately to its customer. In this case we need to find the stand alone price of the discount option.

We first find the difference between regular price and the discount option:

$25 - $20 = $5

Then we multiply by the possibility of the discount sale happening (60%) and the total number of goods sold with the discount option.

= $5 x 60% x 1,000 fryers

= $3,000
