You are a new consultant with the Boston Group and have been sent to advise the executives of penury Company. The company recently acquired product line L from an out-of-state concern and now plans to produce it, along with its old standby K, under one roof in a newly renovated facility. Management is quite proud of the acquisition, contending that the larger size and related cost savings will make the company far more profitable. The planner results of the month’s operations, based on management’s best estimates of the maximum product demanded at today’s selling price are:

LINE K LINE L
Amount Per unit Amout Per unit Total
Sale revenue $ 120,000.00 $    1.20 $ 80,000.00 $    0.80 $ 200.00

Contribution margin $   60,000.00 $    0.60 $ 20,000.00 $    0.20 $   80.00
Fixed expense       50.00
Net income $   30.00

Required:

Give reasons why the fixed cost for the two products combined are expected to be less than the sum of the fixed costs of each product line operating as a separate business.
