The correct answer is:
$39,077.60.
Explanation:
We take the total amount of Brendon's employment benefits and subtract the expenses.
Since he purchases 12 shirts at $23.95, this is $287.40 off; this gives us
39500-287.40 = 39,212.60.
He has to attend a conference that cost him $135; this gives us
39,212.60 - 135 = $39,077.60.
