Answer 1

Answer:

Sales revenues= $1,317,150

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Vaughn estimates it will sell 7000 units during the first quarter of 2019 with a 12% increase in sales each quarter.

Selling price= $150

First, we need to calculate the number of units to be sold in the third quarter:

Sale in units= 7,000*1.12^2= 8,781

Now, sales revenues:

Sales revenues= 8,781*150

Sales revenues= $1,317,150
