The collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably predictable, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the costs yet to be incurred by the lessor. The lessee assumes responsibility for all executory costs, which amount to $5,500 per year and are to be paid each October 1, beginning October 1, 2014. (This $5,500 is not included in the rental payment of $62,700.) The asset will revert to the lessor at the end of the lease term. The straight-line depreciation method is used for all equipment.
The following amortization schedule has been prepared correctly for use by both the lessor and the lessee in accounting for this lease. The lease is to be accounted for properly as a capital lease by the lessee and as a direct-financing lease by the lessor.

MM Co. predicts sales of $40,000 for May. MM Co. pays a sales manager a monthly salary of $3,300 plus a commission of 7% of sales dollars. MM’s production manager recently found a way to reduce the amount of packaging MM uses. As a result, MM’s product will receive better placement on store shelves and thus May sales are predicted to increase by 9%. In addition, MM’s shipping costs are predicted to decrease from 5% of sales to 4% of sales.

Compute (1) budgeted sales and (2) budgeted selling expenses for May assuming MM switches to this more sustainable packaging.
