Sales revenue = $1,881,600

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Deer estimates it will sell 10,000 units during the first quarter of 2016 with a 12% increase in sales each quarter. Each surfboard costs $100 and is sold for $150.

Sales:

First quarter = 10,000

Second quarter = 10,000*1.12 = 11,200

Third quarter = 11,200*1.12 = 12,544

Sales revenue = 12,544*150 = $1,881,600
