Working Note 1:   Company’s Total Sales= $ 6,00,000 Contribution Margin= 0.30 Net Operating Income=$ 12,000, Common Fixed Cost= $ 60,000

        Therefore Total Variable Cost= 0.7 * 6,00,000= $ 4,20,000 and Total Contribution=1,80,000

                            Traceable Fixed Cost=Contribution-Common Fixed Exp-Net Operating Income

                                                                  =1,80,000-60,000-12,000= $ 1,08,000

    Total Segment Margins of the co=1,80,000-1,08,000-72,000=$

Working Note 2:

North Division Contribution=$ 68,000 , Contribution Margin Ratio= 34 %

Therefore Sales= Contribution *100/Contribution Margin

                                 = 68,000*100/34 = $ 2,00,000

Therefore Variable Cost= Sales*0.66= 2,00,000*0.66=$ 1,32,000

Working Note 3 : South division segment margin=$ 40,000

South division’s Sales= Total Sales- North sales=6,00,000-2,00,000= $ 4,00,000

                Similarly South’s Variable Cost=4,20,000-1,32,000= $ 2,88,000

                  South’s Contribution=4,00,000-288,000= $ 1,12,000

          South’s Traceable Fixed Cost=South’s contribution-South segment Margin

                                                                  = 1,12,000-40,000= $ 72,000

Working Note 4: North’s Traceable Fixed Exp= Total Traceable Fixed Exp-South’s traceable Fixed Exp

                                                                    = 1,08,000- 72,000 = $ 36,000
