J and K. During November, Ieso Corporation reported a net operating income of $30,000 and sales of $450,000. The contribution margin in Store J was $100,000, or 40% of sales. The segment margin in Store K was $30,000, or 15% of sales. Traceable fixed expenses are $60,000 in Store J, and $40,000 in Store K.

Store J:

Sales = 250,000

Variable costs = (150,000)

Contribution margin = 100,000

Fixed costs = (60,000)

Segmented margin = 40,000

Store K:

Sales = (30,000/0.15) = 200,000

Variable costs = (200,000 - 70,000) = (130,000)

Contribution margin = (30,000 + 40,000) = 70,000

Fixed costs = (40,000)

Segmented margin = 30,000

Total margin = 40,000 + 30,000 = 70,000

Unavoidable fixed costs = (40,000)

Net operating income = 30,000

Total variable costs = 280,000

Total fixed costs = 140,000
