Working note:
Variable cost of East division = 422,000 × 60% = $253,200
Variable cost of Central division
= 700,000 × 25% = $175,000
Variable cost of West division
= 520,000 × 31% = $161,200
Un traceable fixed cost = 1,158,000 - 816,000 = $342,000
2 17% increase in sales by increasing advertisement expenses by $21,000.
Increase in sales = 520,000 + 17% = $608,400
Variable cost = 608,400 × 31% = $188,604
Traceable fixed cost = 196,000 + 21,000 = $217,000
