Answer:

A. $1,675

B. No

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Calculation for increase or decrease in net operating income

Increase in monthly sales $17,500

× Contribution margin ratio 39%

Increase in Contribution margin $6,825

(17,500×39%)

Less: Advertising costs $8,500

Net Operating income decreases by $1,675

($6,825- $8,500)

b. Based on the above Calculation the advertising should NOT be increased.
