Enok, a prospective franchise owner, is looking to keep his monthly costs as low as possible. The franchisor he is checking out is advertising that royalty payments of 8% of sales could be as high as $300,000 per month. The franchisor is claiming that a franchisee can expect monthly sales to be as high as(1) $300,000.(2) $3,125,000.(3) $3,750,000.(4) $3,000,000.

Answer 1

Answer:

(3) $3,750,000

Explanation:

The computation of the expect monthly sales to be as high is shown below:

Given that

Sales per month = $300,000

Royalty payments = 8% of sales

So, the expected monthly sales would be

= Sales per month ÷ Royalty payments percentage

= $300,000 ÷ 8%

= $3,750,000

We simply divided the sales per month by the royalty payment percentage i.e 8%
