Answer:

Net Operating Income will decrease by $503,080.

Explanation:

Sales of Hardware after 12% decrease will be $3,100,000 * 88% (100 - 12) = $2,728,000

Variable Expenses of Hardware after 12% decrease 891,000 * 88% (100 - 12) = $784,080

Net Operating Income of Hardware after 12% decrease = $623,920

The sunk cost for Linens fixed cost will be deducted to find the total of net operating income

$623,920 - $375,000 = $248,920

$248,920 is the net operating income after dropping Linens

The increase or decrease is calculated by finding the difference between current and old total net operating income

$248,920 - $752,000 = $503,080
