    Answer: There would be decrease in loss by $30,000

    Explanation: As we know that : -

    current income = contribution margin - fixed cost

    .

    Now, calculating current net income / loss : -

    net income / loss = $26,000 - $74,000

    = $48,000 loss

    Now, after eliminating department : -

    net income / loss = $18,000 loss

    So the company will have an advantage by eliminating the department as it would result in decrease in loss by ($48,000 loss - $18,000 loss) $30,000.
