Answer:

The operating income of the company will fall down to $(186,000).

Explanation:

Currently, the company has a operating income of $(40,000). This is the result of the equation sales minus variable costs minus fixed costs. In numbers: [tex]700,000 - 430,000 - 310,000 = (40,000)[/tex].

If Castillo Corporation will eliminate all the product line together, the sales will drop to zero. The variable costs wil be zero too. But from the $310,000 of fixed costs, will remain the 40% (186,000). If we use the same equation, the result is [tex]0 - 0 - 186,000 = 186,000[/tex].
