Answer:
$ 48,000
Explanation:
Eyestone Corporation
Division A Division B
Sales $ 80,000 $ 170,000
Variable expenses 48,000 136,000
Fixed Expenses 22000 9,000
Segment margin $ 10,000 $ 25,000
Common Fixed Costs 17,000
Common Fixed Costs are the ones which are not traceable and usually deducted at the end from the total gross profit.
Total Fixed Expenses = Common Fixed Expenses + Variable Fixed Expenses
Total Fixed Expenses = 22000+ 9000 + 17000 = $48000
