Answer:
t oadvertize there is 1,435,164.80 dollars available.
Explanation:
Sales: 9,815,000 x (1 + 4.5%) = 10,256,675.00
general expenses are 41% of sales but will decay by 1.5%
10,256,675 x (0.41) x (1 - 0.015) = 4,142,158.20
Profit will increase by 2%
4,587,600 x (1 + 2%) = 4,679,352
The amount available for advertizing spending is the difference between sales and the cost and profit:
sales - expenses - advertizing = profit
sales - expenses - profit = advertizing
advertizing = 10,256,675.00 - 4,142,158.20 - 4,679,352
advertizing = 1,435,164.80
