Respuesta :

Answer:

a. $16,350.

Explanation:

The computation of the advertising expense to Department T based on departmental sales is shown below:

= Total advertising expenses × Department T Sales ÷ total sales

= $37,000 × $212,550 ÷ $481,000

= $16,350

By multiplying the total advertising expenses with the department T sales and then divide it by the total sales we can get the allocation amount
