    Option (a) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Pretax income = Contribution - Fixed cost

    Contribution = Pretax income + Fixed cost

    = $1,824,000 + $1,444,000

    = $3,268,000

    Sales - Variable Cost = Contribution

    Variable Cost = Sales - Contribution

    = (380,000 electric screwdrivers * $20.40 each) - $3,268,000

    = $7,752,000 - $3,268,000

    = $4,484,000
