Reshier Company makes three types of rug shampooers. Model 1 is the basic model rented through hardware stores and supermarkets. Model 2 is a more advanced model with both dry-and wet-vacuuming capabilities. Model 3 is the heavy-duty riding shampooer sold to hotels and convention centers. A segmented income statement is shown below.

		Model 1		Model 2		Model 3		Total
Sales		$270,000		$598,000		$606,500		$1,474,500
Less variable costs of goods sold		(89,500)		(163,640)		(352,800)		(605,940)
Less commissions		(6,000)		(27,500)		(20,250)		(53,750)
Contribution margin		$174,500		$406,860		$233,450		$814,810
Less common fixed expenses:
Fixed factory overhead								(410,000)
Fixed selling and administrative								(299,000)
Operating income								$105,810

While all models have positive contribution margins, Reshier Company is concerned because operating income is less than 10 percent of sales and is low for this type of company. The companys controller gathered additional information on fixed costs to see why they were so high. The following information on activities and drivers was gathered:

						Driver Usage by Model
Activity	Activity Cost				Activity Driver	Model 1				Model 2				Model 3
Engineering		$76,000			Engineering hours		710				71				219
Setting up		177,000			Setup hours		12,300				12,700				29,219
Customer service		112,000			Service calls		14,300				1,580				19,219

Which alternative is more cost effective and by how much? (Assume that any traceable fixed costs can be avoided.) Do NOT round interim calculations and, if required, round your answer to the nearest dollar. 1. Dropping Model 1 will add $ ______ to operating income What if Reshier Company can only avoid 186 hours of engineering time and 5,350 hours of setup time that are attributable to Model 1? How does that affect the alternatives presented in Requirement 2? Which alternative is more cost effective and by how much? Do NOT round interim calculations and, if required, round your answer to the nearest dollar. 2. Keeping Model 1 will add $_______ to operating income
