Answer 1

c) $28,200

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the net operating income is as follows

Total segment margin is

= $41,300 + $93,700

= $135,000

And, the common fixed expenses is $106,800

So, the net operating income is

= Total segment margin - common fixed expenses

= $135,000 - $106,800

= $28,200

Hence, the net operating income is $28,200

Therefore the correct option is c.
