Carla Vista Manufacturing Company has four operating divisions. During the first quarter of 2022, the company reported aggregate income from operations of $182,700 and the following divisional results:

		Division
		I		II		III		IV
Sales		$509,500		$418,600		$313,300		$179,300
Cost of goods sold		289,700		249,000		266,600		154,800
Selling and administrative expenses		60,100		75,400		67,400		75,000
Income (loss) from operations		$159,700		$94,200		$(20,700)		$(50,500)

The analysis reveals the following percentages of variable costs in each division:

		I			II			III			IV
Cost of goods sold		70%			89%			74%			92%
Selling and administrative expenses		38			48			65			70

Discontinuance of any division would save 50% of the fixed costs and expenses for that division. Top management is very concerned about the unprofitable divisions (III and IV). The consensus is that the company should discontinue one or both of these divisions.

Calculate the contribution margin for divisions III and IV. (Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)

		Divisions III		Divisions IV
Contribution margin		$enter a dollar amount		$enter a dollar amount

Prepare an incremental analysis for the possible discontinuance of (1) division III and (2) division IV. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125. Enter all negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). While alternate approaches are possible, irrelevant fixed costs should be included in both options when solving this problem.) (1) Division III

Division III:		Keep Div. III			Shut Div. III			Income Increase (Decrease)
Contribution margin		$enter a dollar amount			$enter a dollar amount			$enter a dollar amount
Fixed costs		enter a dollar amount			enter a dollar amount			enter a dollar amount
Totals		$enter a total amount			$enter a total amount			$enter a total amount

(2) Division IV

Division IV:		Keep Div. IV			Shut Div. IV			Income Increase (Decrease)
Contribution margin		$enter a dollar amount			$enter a dollar amount			$enter a dollar amount
Fixed costs		enter a dollar amount			enter a dollar amount			enter a dollar amount
Totals		$enter a total amount			$enter a total amount			$enter a total amount

What course of action do you recommend for each division?

Division III should be select an option eliminatedcontinued.

Division IV should be select an option eliminatedcontinued.

Prepare a condensed income statement in columns for Carla Vista Manufacturing, assuming division IV is eliminated. Use the CVP format. Division IVs unavoidable fixed costs are allocated equally to the continuing divisions. (Enter loss using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45). While alternate approaches are possible, irrelevant fixed costs should be included in both options when solving this problem.)
