It is necessary to deduct the variable cost per unit from the sales revenue per unit in order to calculate the contribution margin per unit. Net Income is computed by subtracting all the fixed expenses from the contribution margin.Computation of Change occur to profit is as follows: Current profit = $15,000 + $35,000 - $4,000=$46,000 If the costume section is dropped, there won't be any sales, but there will still be allocated common fixed expenses and direct fixed costs. Profit if costume segment is eliminated = $15,000 + $35,000 - $50,000 - $30,000=($30,000) $46,000 profit will become ($30,000) loss hence profit will reduce by $76,000 Answer: Profit will reduce by $76,000
