Holliday allocates building depreciation, maintenance, and utilities on the basis of square footage. Office expenses are allocated on the basis of sales.

Management is considering an expansion to a three-department operation. The proposed Department C would generate $120,000 in additional sales and have a 17.5% contribution to overhead. The company owns its building. Opening Department C would redistribute the square footage to each department as follows: A, 19,040; B, 21,760 sq. ft.; C, 13,600. Increases in indirect expenses would include: maintenance, $500; utilities, $3,800; and office expenses, $1,200.

Complete the following departmental income statements, showing projected results of operations for the three sales departments. (Round amounts to the nearest whole dollar.)

	Dept. A		Dept. B		Dept. C		Combined
Sales	$180,000		$200,000
Direct expenses	129,900		142,870
