Consolidated Industries is a diversified manufacturer with business units organized as divisions, including the Reigis Steel Division. Consolidated monitors its divisions on the basis of both unit contribution and return on investment (ROI), with investment defined as average operating assets employed. All investments in operating assets are expected to earn a minimum return of 10% before income taxes.
Reigis’s cost of goods sold is considered to be entirely variable; however, its administrative expenses do not depend on volume. Selling expenses are a mixed cost with one-third attributed to sales volume. The 2019 operating statement for Reigis follows. The division’s operating assets employed were $114,250,000 at November 30, 2019, unchanged from the year before.

Salaries | 95 | 85 | 84 | 264 | |||||
Segment margin | $20 | $40 | $(22) | $38 |
Direct fixed expenses consist of depreciation and plant supervisory salaries. All depreciation on the equipment is dedicated to the product lines. None of the equipment can be sold.
Assume that, each of the three products has a different supervisor whose position would be eliminated if the associated product were dropped.
Assume that 20% of the Alanson customers choose to buy from Petoskey because it offers a full range of products, including Conway. If Conway were no longer available from Petoskey, these customers would go elsewhere to purchase Alanson.
Required:
Conceptual Connection: Estimate the impact on profit that would
result from dropping Conway. Enter amount in full, rather than in
thousands. For example, "15000" rather than "15".
