The head administrator of Jackson County Senior Services, Judith Miyama, considers last year's net operating income of $45,500 to be unsatisfactory, therefore, she is considering the possibility of discontinuing the housekeeping program. The depreciation in housekeeping is for a small van that is used to carry the housekeepers and their equipment from job to job. If the program were discontinued, the van ould be donated to a charitab organization. None of the general administrativ overhead would be avoided if the housekeeping program were dropped, but the liability insurance and the salary of the program administrator would be avoided.
