The product line is losing money so with a commission study it will determine whether the
company should discontinue the product line. Company accountants estimate that
discontinuing, will decrease fixed cost of goods sold by $81,000 and decrease fixed
marketing and administrative expenses by $14,000. Production engineers believe that by
cutting down on project expenses the company could save another $100,000 of fixed cost
of goods sold from the product line (GREEN).
1. Using an incremental analysis approach (only relevant information) clearly
calculate whether HVFP should discontinue the product line. Your analysis
should first show the results without the GREEN savings and then show the
results with the GREEN savings.
2. Prepare contribution margin income statements to show HVFP's total
operating income under the three alternatives (a) with the industrial systems
product line, (b) without the industrial systems product line, and (c) without
the industrial systems product line and including the GREEN savings.
