Its' mission is to deliver quality solutions for the protection of lives and property, providing an exceptional value to customers.

In recent years the Industrial Systems product line has not performed up to expectations. This year the CEO of WSFPC received the following operating income data about the performance of the two product lines: Sales revenue Cost of goods sold: Variable.. Fixed.. 250,000 Total cost of goods sold. $285,000 Gross profit... $ 45,000 Product Line Industrial Systems $330,000 $ 35,000 Household Systems Total $360,000 $690,000 $ 44,000 $ 79,000 67,000 317,000 $111,000 $396,000 $249,000 $294,000 Marketing and administrative expenses: Variable. 62,000 76,000 138,000 Fixed 39,000 23,000 62,000 Total marketing and administrative expenses Operating income (loss).. $101,000 $ 99,000 $200,000 $(56,000) $150,000 $ 94,000 The CEO is surprised that the industrial systems product line is now losing money so decided to commission a study to determine whether the company should discontinue the product line. Company accountants estimate that discontinuing industrial systems will decrease fixed cost of goods sold by $81,000 and decrease fixed marketing and administrative expenses by $14,000. Production engineers believe that by cutting down on LEED project expenses the company could save another $100,000 of fixed cost of goods sold from the Industrial Systems product line but the sales managers believe that providing LEED project solutions is important for marketing the company to customers.
