    Explanation:

    The question asks to calculate how much will be disbursed by the company in February.

    Firstly, we know that the company disburses 75% in the month of purchase and 25% during the month after purchase.

    Now, 75% of $130,000 would be disbursed as February's own payment:

    Mathematically 75/100 * 130,000 = 97,500

    Also, we should not forget that the company disburses 25% of previous month during the current. That is 25/100 * 100,000 = 25,000

    Total amount disbursed is thus 25,000 + 97,500 = $122,500
