Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

cleaning equipment and supplies is $2,460 per month plus $49 per boat.

Hence,

Cleaning equipment and supplies in flexible budget :

= (Activity planned by company × Amount per boat) + Fixed amount

= (58 boats × $49) + 2,460

= 2,842 + 2,460

= $5,302

Therefore, the cleaning equipment and supplies in the flexible budget for April would be closest to $5,302.
