Answer 1

Dreamworld's average accumulated expenditures for 2018 was = $421,750

Step-by-step explanation:

Dreamworld's average accumulated expenditures for 2018 was

January 1 - December 31, 2018 = $307,000 x
`(12)/(12)` = $307,000

September 31 - December 31 = $459,000 x
`(3)/(12)` = $114,750

December 31 - December 31 = $459,000 x
`(0)/(12)` = $0

Total expenditure = $307,000 + $114,750 + $0

Total expenditure = $421,750

Since, the question is to determine 2018 expenditure, 2019 balance are not necessary.
