Answer 1

Answer:

The total budgeted selling and administrative expenses would be what amount on the January pro forma income statement is $113,400

Explanation:

Computation of total budgeted selling and administrative expenses in the January pro forma income statement is shown below:

= Freight out + Sales & Admin Salaries + Advertising + Lease on Sales building + Miscellaneous selling expenses

where,

Freight out = $0.25 × 20,000 units = $5,000

Sales & Admin Salaries = 40,000 + 2% of $320,000 = $46,400

So,

The total budgeted selling and administrative expenses is

= $5,000 + $46,400 + $12,000 + $45,000 + $5,000

= $113,400

Since depreciation part is not be considered because it is a non cash expense so we don't include the depreciation cost in computation part.

Hence, the total budgeted selling and administrative expenses would be what amount on the January pro forma income statement is $113,400
