Answer:

MC Qu. 70 Cameroon Corp.

The dollar amount of sales budgeted for February:

December Sales in unit = 10,000

January Sales in unit = 10,400

February Sales in unit = 10,816

or 10,000 x 1.0816 represent the 4% month-on-month growth.

Explanation:

January Sales in unit = 10,400

Calculated as 10,000 x 1.04 (with 4% growth in sales each month)

February Sales in unit = 10,816

Calculated as 10,400 x 1.04 (with 4% growth in sales each month)

or 10,000 x 1.0816 represent the 4% month-on-month growth.

The January sales is expected to grow by 4% on the December figure.  This represent a growth of 1.04.

The February sales therefore grows by 1.0816 on the December figure.  This is the same as 1.04 x 1.04.
