Structuring a Keep-or-Drop Product Line Problem with Complementary Effects Shown below is a segmented income statement for Hickory Company's three wooden flooring product lines: Strip Plank Parquet Total Sales revenue $400,000 $200,000 $300,000 $900,000 Less: Variable expenses 225,000 120,000 250,000 595,000 Contribution margin $175,000 $ 80,000 $ 50,000 $305,000 Less direct fixed expenses: Machine rent (5,000) (20,000) (50,000) (75,000) Supervision (15,000) (10,000) (20,000) (45,000) Depreciation (35,000) (10,000) (25,000) (70,000) Segment margin $120,000 $ 40,000 $ (45,000) $115,000 Hickory's management is deciding whether to keep or drop the parquet product line. Hickory's parquet flooring product line has a contribution margin of $50,000 (sales of $300,000 less total variable costs of $250,000). All variable costs are relevant. Relevant fixed costs associated with this line include 80% of parquet's machine rent and all of parquet's supervision salaries. In addition, assume that dropping the parquet product line would reduce sales of the strip line by 10% and sales of the plank line by 5%. All other information remains the same. Required: 1. If the parquet product line is dropped, what is the contribution margin for the strip line
