A condensed income statement by product line for British Beverage Inc. indicated the following for Royal Cola for the past year:

Sales	$232,800
Cost of goods sold	110,000
Gross profit	$122,800
Operating expenses	144,000
Loss from operations	$(21,200)

It is estimated that 16% of the cost of goods sold represents fixed factory overhead costs and that 21% of the operating expenses are fixed. Since Royal Cola is only one of many products, the fixed costs will not be materially affected if the product is discontinued.

a. Prepare a differential analysis, dated March 3, to determine whether Royal Cola should be continued (Alternative 1) or discontinued (Alternative 2). If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". Use a minus sign to indicate a loss.
