Georges Grill analyzes profitability of three operating units: restaurant, bar, and billiards room. Revenues, variable costs, and attributable fixed costs (which can be avoided if the unit is eliminated) for each unit are as follows:

Restaurant Bar Billiards Room
Revenue $320,000 $150,000 $40,000
Variable costs 120,000 35,000 10,000
Attributable fixed costs 80,000 25,000 15,000

The bars segment margin would have to increase by at least $__________
