Recent income statements have been very similar to the following information which was prepared for the most recent year:

	Home	Retail	Industrial	Total
Sales	$550,000	$320,000	$830,000	$1,700,000
Variable costs	357,500	217,600	680,600	1,255,700
Contribution margin	192,500	102,400	149,400	444,300
Fixed costs	125,000	130,000	115,000	370,000
Operating income	$67,500	$(27,600)	$34,400	$74,300

Of the fixed costs, $315,000 is common cost that have been allocated equally to each product line. What will total operating income be if Leonora drops the retail line?
