Product R19N has been considered a drag on profits at Buzzeo Corporation for some time and management is considering discontinuing the product altogether. Data from the company's accounting system appear below:

Sales                                                                 270,000

Variable expenses                                            132,000

Fixed manufacturing expenses                        95,000

Fixed selling and administrative expenses     65,000

In the company's accounting system all fixed expenses of the company are fully allocated to products. Further investigation has revealed that $49,000 of the fixed manufacturing expenses and $30,000 of the fixed selling and administrative expenses are avoidable if product R19N is discontinued. What would be the effect on the company's overall net operating income if product R19N were dropped?

Decrease in net operating income $(59 ,000)

Explanation:

The effect of discontinuing the product would be determined by  considering the following cash flows:

                                                                                                 $

Lost contribution from the product

(270,000 -132,000)                                                         (138 ,000)                  

Savings in fixed cost

(49,000 + 30,000)                                                           79,000

Decrease in net operating income                              (59 ,000)

If product R19N is discontinued , the company's overall net operating income would be reduced by $59,000

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
