Answer:
$191,500
Explanation:
If the item is not dropped:
Loss = Sales - Variable expenses - Fixed manufacturing expenses - Fixed selling and administrative expenses
= $923,000 - $405,500 - $337,000 - $244,000
= (63,500) loss
Fixed mfg. expenses remaining:
= Fixed manufacturing expenses - Avoidable Fixed manufacturing expenses
= $337,000 - $207,500
= $129,500
Fixed selling and administrative expenses remaining:
= Fixed selling and administrative expenses - Avoidable Fixed selling and administrative expenses
= $244,000 - $118,500
= $125,500
Loss in expenses remaining if item is dropped
:
= Fixed mfg. expenses remaining + Fixed selling and administrative expenses remaining
= $129,500 + $125,500
= ($255,000)
Overall net operating income would decrease by:
= Loss in expenses remaining if item is dropped - Loss in expenses if item is not dropped
= $255,000 - $63,500
= $191,500
