Answer:

$ 32,100

Explanation:

company's net operating income =  Beta Division Controllable Profit + Alpha Division Controllable Profit - Common fixed expenses not traceable

Beta Division Controllable Profit = ($235,000-$132,600-$63,800)

                                                      = $38,600

Alpha Division Controllable Profit = ($545,000-$309,800-$121,500)

                                                      = $113,700

therefore,

company's net operating income = $38,600 + $113,700 - $120,200

                                                       = $ 32,100

Answer:

Net operating  income  $32,100

Explanation:

The sum of the the two divisions sales and expenses would be the the reported figures for the entire company. The net operating income would be computed as follows

                                                                                                           $

Total sales  ($235,000 + $545,000)                                         780,000

Variables expenses (132,600 +309,800)                                 (442,400)

Contribution                                                                                  337,600

Traceable fixed expenses(63,800+ 121,500)                          (185,300 )

Common fixed expenses                                                           (120,200)

Net operating  income                                                                 32,100
