Which sentence correctly demonstrates a mixed conditional, combining a past condition with a present result?

AIf I had taken that job, I would have been rich now.
BIf I had taken that job, I would be rich now.
CIf I take that job, I would be rich now.
DIf I took that job, I would be rich now.

Explanation

A mixed conditional combines the past perfect tense in the ‘if’ clause, describing an unreal past condition, with ‘would’ plus the base form of the verb in the main clause, describing a present hypothetical result, as in ‘If I had taken that job, I would be rich now.’ This structure is used specifically when a past decision continues to have an imagined effect on the present.
