Solution

To solve this problem, we need to calculate the sales for each month of the first quarter (January, February, and March) and then add them together.

  1. January: The company expects to sell 400 units of Product X, and each unit is sold for 10.So,thetotalsalesforJanuarywouldbe400units10. So, the total sales for January would be 400 units * 10/unit = $4000.

  2. February: The sales are expected to increase by 10% in February. So, the number of units sold in February would be 400 units * 1.10 = 440 units. The total sales for February would be 440 units * 10/unit=10/unit = 4400.

  3. March: The sales are expected to increase by 10% in March as well. So, the number of units sold in March would be 440 units * 1.10 = 484 units. The total sales for March would be 484 units * 10/unit=10/unit = 4840.

Finally, to find the total sales for the first quarter, we add up the sales for January, February, and March: 4000+4000 + 4400 + 4840=4840 = 13240.

So, the total sales for the first quarter of the year will be $13240.
