Discontinue a Segment

Product T has revenue of $195,900, variable cost of goods sold of $113,400, variable selling expenses of $31,800, and fixed costs of $58,200, creating a loss from operations of $7,500.

Prepare a differential analysis as of September 12, to determine if Product T should be continued (Alternative 1) or discontinued (Alternative 2), assuming fixed costs are unaffected by the decision. If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". Use a minus sign to indicate a loss.
