Answer:

Estimated commission revenues is$50,688,000.00  

Explanation:

The estimated commission revenue for Acutron in the coming year  reflects last year's volume of trade less 20% decline multiplied by the average commission for last year adjusted for 10% increase

volume of trade=240,000*(1-20%)

                          =240,000*0.80

                          = 192,000 trades

average commission  per trade=$240*(1+10%)

                                                    =$240*1.1

                                                    =$264

Estimated commission revenue=quantity*price

                                                     =192,000*$264

                                                      =$50,688,000.00
