Question

PLEASE help me with this problem! I've posted this question before and every solution I've been given is incorrect. Everything with a red x is incorrect and I really need the correct answers to the problem in order to move on. This problem is really frustrating me because I've tried so many different formulas and cannot for the life of me figure out the problem answers! The options for the "Click to Select" are on the right side of the second image. If you can't see the pictures (first image is of the preliminary info, second is of the problem), I've uploaded the images to Imgur here:

Everything that is in the correct spot (with a green checkmark), please leave them in the cells they are in because each of the "Click to Select" options on the left-hand side is slightly different per cell.

Explanation / Answer

Answer for question no.1:

employment taxes is the be calculated as 11%(Sales salaries+Delivery salaries+store management salaries+general management salaries)

The two options that were selected wrongly are Direct advertising should be selected instead of general advertiing, becauese general advertising is an allocation, but direct advertsing is directly related to that particular store and it can be avioded if the store is closed and at the amount where $8,000 is correct, Delivry salaries should be selected.
