Answer 1

Answer:

$5300

Explanation:

Contribution margin for Division B = Sales * Contribution margin ratio

= $243,000 * 20%

= $46,800

Total contribution margin = Division A + Division B

= $46,400 + $46,800

= $93,200

Contribution margin $93,200

Less : Traceable fixed expenses $51,100

Less : Common fixed expenses (plug) $5300

Net operating income $33,800
