Explanation:

Budgeted Selling Expenses = Fixed Sales and Administration Salaries +          

                                             Variable Sales and Administration Expenses  

                                             + Advertising + Miscellaneous Selling  

                                               Expenses + Lease on Sales Building +                            

                                               Frieght Out + Depreciation on Administrative                      

                                                                                                    Equipment

                                            = 40000 + 2%*20000*16 + 12000 + 5000 +  

                                                45000 + 20000*.25 + 10000 = 123400  

Option A (123400) is the correct answer.

                                        Lease on Sales Building + Frieght Out

                                       = 40000 + 2%*20000*16 + 12000 + 5000 +  

                                            45000 + 20000*.25 = 113400
