how much advertising cost is allocated to each department if the allocation is based on departmental sales?

(i) $34,200

(ii) $55,860

(iii) $23,960

Explanation:

Total sales = $ 240,000 + $392,000 + $168,000

                  = $800,000

Department 1:

sales = $240,000

Percent of total = sales ÷ Total sales

                          = $240,000 ÷ $800,000

                          = 0.3

Allocated amount = % of total × advertising to allocate

                              = 0.3 × $114,000

                              = $34,200

Department 2:

sales = $392,000

Percent of total = sales ÷ Total sales

                          = $392,000 ÷ $800,000

                          = 0.49

Allocated amount = % of total × advertising to allocate

                              = 0.49 × $114,000

                              = $55,860

Department 3:

sales = $168,000

Percent of total = sales ÷ Total sales

                          = $168,000 ÷ $800,000

                          = 0.21

Allocated amount = % of total × advertising to allocate

                              = 0.21 × $114,000

                              = $23,940
