A Correct answer
Explanation

The DOLLAR format in SAS adds both the dollar sign and comma separators. The width 11 accommodates $110,700.00 (10 characters) and the .2 specifies two decimal places. The COMMA format only adds separators without the dollar sign. Option C is missing the variable name, and D incorrectly attempts multiple formats.
