Question
A budget includes 12,000 for supplies and 84,000, the amount spent on supplies will be:
Solution
First, we need to find the total of the initial budget.
The initial budget is 12,000 (for supplies) + 80,000.
Next, we need to find out by what factor the budget is increased.
The budget is increased to 84,000 / $80,000 = 1.05.
Finally, we need to find out how much will be spent on supplies after the increase.
The initial amount for supplies is 12,000 * 1.05 = $12,600.
