Within a region, administrative expenses are allocated between online branded sales and wholesale branded sales based on their respective proportion of total branded sales in the region; thus if 80% of total branded sales in a region were to area retailers, then 80% of the region's total administrative expenses would be allocated to the wholesale segment and 20% would be allocated to the Internet segment.

C. No administrative expenses are allocated to private-label footwear; the company's accounting system allocates all administrative expenses to branded footwear.

D. Administrative costs are allocated between branded production and private-label production according to their respective percentages of total revenue generated.thus, if 55% of the company.s revenues come from branded sales then 55% of annual administrative costs are allocated to branded footwear.

E. The "Other Corporate Overhead" category of administrative costs always averages $1 per pair of plant capacity; other Corporate Overhead changes by $1 per pair in the same year as any new plant capacity comes online and in the same year that any capacity is sold off to the merchants of used footwear-making equipment.
