The following operating data have been gathered for the most recent quarter: Caxton Tinta Bozze Total Sales $750,000 $300,000 $450,000 $1,500,000 Variable costs $450,000 $150,000 $300,000 $900,000 Contribution margin 300,000 150,000 150,000 600,000 Fixed costs Rent $37,500 $15,000 $22,500 $75,000 Depreciation $45,000 $18,000 $27,000 $90,000 Utilities $30,000 $7,500 $22,500 $60,000 Supervision $22,500 $7,500 $45,000 $75,000 Maintenance $22,500 $9,000 $13,500 $45,000 Administrative $45,000 $30,000 $75,000 $150,000 Total fixed costs 202,500 87,000 205,500 495,000 Operating income (loss) $97,500 $63,000 -$55,500 $105,000 After reviewing the financial information, the company's president is wondering whether the Bozze product line should be dropped. Going back through the accounting records, the president noted that the Bozze product line has reported losses in each of the past three quarters. To help with this decision, the company's accountant gathered additional information. If the Bozze product line is dropped: US Rent and depreciation expenses would be unaffected. Utilities costs would be reduced from $60,000 per quarter to $46,500. The position of Supervisor for the Bozze product line could be eliminated, thereby saving the Supervisor's salary for that product line. Quarterly maintenance costs would be reduced by $10,500. One of the administrative assistants' positions could be eliminated, thereby saving $40,500 per quarter in Administrative expenses. . . Required (A) Should Penna Company eliminate the Bozze product line? By how much will the company's income increase or decrease by dropping the Bozze product line? (B) Penna Company's sales manager thinks that it is very important for the company to retain all three product lines. The sales manager suspects that eliminating the Bozze will reduce the sales of the remaining two product lines by 5% each. Will this information change your recommendation from (A)? Why or why not? Explain. (C)In general, when management at an organization is analyzing whether to keep or drop a product line, what financial and non-financial factors should be considered
