Respuesta :

Answer:

total operating expense is $32726

Explanation:

Given data

Sales = $100,000

Purchases of Merchandise = $95,000

Depreciation in Accounting Department  = $2378

Insurance = $11314

Payroll expenses = $5234 + 2% sales = 5234 + 2000 = $7234

Administrative office expenses = 4% of purchases of merchandise = 0.04×95000 = $3800

Research and Development = 8% of sales = 0.08×100000 = $8000

Purchase of equipment = $4650

to find out

total operating expense for June

solution
