Giada's Book Store

The company would have reported a total profit of $19,000, which is $10,000 less.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Income statement for the most current​ year:

                                               Cookbook  Travel Book    Classics   Total

Sales                                        $68,000  $126,000  $53,000  $247,000

Cost of goods sold                    40,000     66,000     21,000     127,000

Contribution margin                  28,000     60,000    32,000     120,000

Order and delivery processing 21,000     24,000      11,000       56,000

Rent​ (per sq. foot​ used)              2,000       5,000      4,000         11,000

Allocated corporate costs          8,000        8,000      8,000       24,000 Corporate profit                     ​$​ (3,000​)  $23,000    $9,000     $29,000
