Answer:

$41,650

Explanation:

Contribution margin is the net of sales and variable costs.

Contribution Margin:

Division A = $47,700

Division B = $231,000 x 35% = $80,850

Company calculates the Net Income after deducting The traceable and common fixed costs from the total contribution margin.

Total contribution margin = $47,700 + $80,850 = $128,550

Net Income = Total contribution margin - Traceable Fixed Expense - Common Fixed expenses

$27,200 = $128,550 - $59,700 - Common Fixed expenses

$27,200 = $68,850 - Common Fixed expenses

Common Fixed expenses = $68,850 - $27,200 = $41,650
