Anheiser has three divisions: Bud, Wise, and Er. The results of May, 2010 are presented below:

	Bud	Wise	Er	Total
Units sold	3,000	5,000	2,000	10,000
Revenue	$70,000	$50,000	$40,000	$160,000
Less variable costs	32,000	26,000	16,000	74,000
Less direct fixed costs	14,000	19,000	12,000	45,000
Less allocated fixed costs	6,000	10,000	4,000	20,000
Net income	$18,000	($5,000)	$ 8,000	$21,000

All of the allocated costs will continue even if a division is discontinued. Anheiser allocates indirect fixed costs based on the number of units to be sold. Since the Wise division has a net loss, Anheiser feels that it should be discontinued. Anheiser feels if the division is closed, that sales at the Bud division will increase by 20%, and that sales at the Er division will stay the same.
