Burien 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.) Also show your calculations for the allocation of indirect expenses in the tables below the Departmental Income Statement.
