Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales $920,000

Variable expenses $388,000

Fixed manufacturing expenses $370,000

Fixed selling and administrative expenses $250,000

Further investigation has revealed that $233,000 of the fixed manufacturing expenses and $194,000 of the fixed selling and administrative expenses are avoidable if product H58S is discontinued.

Current loss= 920,000 - 388,000 - 370,000 - 250,000= -88,000

If H58S gets discontinued:

Operating income= 88,000 - (370,000 - 233,000) - (250,000 - 194,000)= -105,000

The income will decrease $105,000
