Answer:

The correct answer option is B. $17,442.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for Bob Company, the total cost of goods sold in 2016 was $19,000.

In 2017, the total cost of goods sold dropped by 8.2% in comparison to the cost of goods sold in 2016.

Finding the dropped cost:

[tex]8.2%[/tex] × [tex]19000[/tex] [tex]= \frac{8.2}{100}[/tex] × [tex]19000[/tex]

[tex]= $1558[/tex]

So the cost of goods sold in 2017 = 19000 - 1554 = $17442
