Answer:

$87, 500.

Explanation:

1 Pottery cereal bowl = 3 box tops + $1

60% of the box tops will be redeemed. In 2007

Total sales                   = 675,000 boxes of Frosted Flakes

Estimated to be redeemed = 60% of 675,000 = 405,000  boxes  

Already redeemed               = 330,000 box tops

Outstanding                           = Estimated redemption - Already redeemed

Outstanding                            = 405,000 - 330,000 = 75,000 box tops

1 Pottery cereal bowl              = 3 box tops

Outstanding cereal bowl        = 75,000/3 = 25,000

Cost of cereal bowl                 = $2.50

Monetary compensation         = $1

Outstanding premiums           = 25,000 x ($2.50 + $1)

                                                  = 25,000 x $3.5

                                                  = $87,500
