    Given:

    Sales budget = 5,900 units

    Variable selling and administrative expense = $11.20 per unit

    Fixed selling and administrative expense = $131,570 per month

    Depreciation = $16,520 per month

    Therefore, we'll compute cash disbursements for selling and administrative expenses using the following formula:

    Cash disbursements = Variable selling and administrative expense * Sales budget + Fixed selling and administrative expense - Depreciation

    Cash disbursements = $11.20 * 5,900 + $131,570 - $16,520

    Cash disbursements = $181,130

    The correct amount of cash disbursement for the month of April is $181,130.

    Explanation:

    Formula for cash disbursement of selling and administrative expenses =

    Sales budget in units X Variable selling and administrative expense per unit

    -

    Fixed selling and administrative expenses per month

    -

    Depreciation per month

    Given amounts -

    Sales budget = 5900 units

    Selling and administrative expense per unit = $11.20

    Fixed selling and administrative expenses per month = $131,570

    Depreciation per month = $16,520

    Now putting all these values in the formula -

    5900 x $11.20 + $131,570 - $16,520

    = $66,080 + $115,050

    = $181,130
