Frosty whip inc. budgets 65 percent of its total expenses for marketing. total expenses for the company this year are $500,000. what is the dollar amount frosty whip has budgeted for marketing? i am doing a review for an upcoming finance test and i do not understand this question, someone ?

65% of the total expenses is for marketing, in which 500,000 is the total.

First, change the percentage into decimal

65% = 65/100 = 0.65

Next, to find the amount budgeted for marketing, multiply the total with the decimal

0.65 x 500000 = 325000

$325000 is used for marketing

hope this helps
