Description
Pottery Unlimited has two product lines: cups and pitchers. Income statement data for the most recent year follow:
| Total | Cups | Pitchers |
Sales revenue | $460,000 | $310,000 | $150,000 |
Variable expenses | 355,000 | 235,000 | 120,000 |
Contribution margin | 105,000 | 75,000 | 30,000 |
Fixed expenses | 76,000 | 38,000 | 38,000 |
Operating income (loss) | $29,000 | $37,000 | $(8,000) |
If $24023 in fixed costs will be eliminated by dropping the CUP line, how will operating income be affected? If income drops, use a negative sign in front of the number.
