1 dollars comma 000
B
900 dollars
C
1 dollars comma 400
D
1 dollars comma 260

Explanation

A 40% markup on $20 adds $8, so the marked-up price is $28. The 10% discount is $2.80, making the event price $25.20 per cake. Selling 50 cakes brings in 50 × $25.20 = $1,260, so the total revenue is 1 dollars comma 260.
