Biden Company sells two items, product A and product B.  The company is considering dropping product B.  It is expected that sales of product A will increase by 40% as a result.  Dropping product B will allow the company to cancel its monthly equipment rental costing $200 per month.  The other existing equipment will be used for additional production of product A.  One employee earning $500 per month can be terminated if product B production is dropped.  Biden's other fixed costs are allocated and will continue regardless of the decision made.  A condensed, budgeted monthly income statement with both products follows:

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
