    The total budgeted fixed selling and administrative expenses for February is $170,400. The answer is D.

    The calculation is as follows:

    a) Advertising - $50,100

    b) Executive Salaries - $60,100

    c) Depreciation - $20,100

    d) Others - $40,100

    Total = $170,400.

    Explanation:

    To obtain the above answer, we add up all the budgeted fixed selling and administrative expenses, excluding variable elements.

    Fixed costs are costs which do not vary according to the level of production or activity.

    Since the other elements of cost, e. g sales commision, shipping, and part of advertising are variable, these are excluded in getting the fixed selling and administrative expenses.
