Answer: A. $15.4 Million

B. $8.8 million

Explanation:

a. What were the total fees paid to the fund's investment managers during the year?

This will be:

= Average daily assets × Management fee

= $2.2 billion × 0.7%

= $15.4 million

b. What were the other administrative expenses?

The total expense that's incurred for managing the fund will be:

= $2.2 billion × 1.1%

= $24.2 million

Therefore, the other administrative expenses will be:

= $24.2 million - $15.4 million

= $8.8 million
