J.M Smucker Company operates two divisions, the Fruit Preserves Division and the Snack Foods Division. The Fruit Preserves Division manufactures and sells jelly and jams to supermarkets. The Snack Foods Division sells its products to theme parks. The company is considering disposing of the Snack Foods Division since it has been consistently unprofitable for a number of years. The income statements for the two divisions for the year ended December 31, 2017 are presented below:

                             Fruit Preserves    Snack Foods

                                Division       Division             Total

Sales revenue                   $1,500,000         $500,000        $2,000,000

Cost of goods sold                 900,000        350,000       1,250,000

Gross profit                       600,000          150,000           750,000
