What was General's coupon promotional expense in 2022?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1.2 million

Explanation:

The computation of General's coupon promotion expense in 2022 is shown below:-

But before that we need to do following calcualtions

General's coupon promotion expense in 2021 = Shipped coupons × Redeemable cents × Redeemed Coupon percentage

= 140 million × $0.40 × 70%

= $39.2  million

Redemption in 2021 = Coupons redeemed × Redeemable cents

= $56 million × $0.40

= $22.40  million

Redemption in 2022 = Coupons redeemed × Redeemable cents

= $45 million × $0.40

= $18 million  million

So,

General's coupon promotional expense in 2022 = Redemption in 2021 + Redemption in 2022 - General's coupon promotion expense in 2021

= ($22.40 million + $18 million) - $39.2  million

= $1.2 million
