Solution

To calculate the total selling expenses for the merchandising company in January, we need to add up all the costs associated with selling. These include sales commissions, advertising, and the salary for the sales manager.

  1. Calculate the sales commissions: 5% of sales = 0.05 * 400,000=400,000 = 20,000
  2. Add the advertising costs: $10,000
  3. Add the salary for the sales manager: $30,000

So, the total selling expenses on the January selling expense budget will be 20,000(salescommissions)+20,000 (sales commissions) + 10,000 (advertising) + 30,000(salesmanagersalary)=30,000 (sales manager salary) = 60,000.
