Expert Solution
Step 1

In a contribution margin income statement, common costs are allocated to various divisions on the basis of sales ratio.

Sales in Weedban = 37000*8 = $296,000

Sales in Greengrow = 17000*38 = $646000

Total Sales = 296000 + 646000 = $942,000

Common costs allocated to Weedban = 101,000 * 296000/942000 = $31737

Common costs allocated to Greengrow = 101,000 * 646000/942000 = $69,263
