Answer:

$120,000

Explanation:

The computation of the common fixed expense not traceable to the individual divisions is shown below:

=  Divisional segment margin - Net operating income

where,

Divisional segment margin is

= $35,700 + $174,700

=  $210,400

And, the net operating income is $90,400

So, the amount of common fixed expense not traceable is

= $210,400 - $90,400

= $120,000

We simply applied the above formula
