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.
