Store 1 was established first and was built at a lower cost than were Stores 2 and 3. This lower cost results in less depreciation expense for Store 1. Store 2 follows a policy of minimizing both costs and sales prices. Store 3 follows a policy of providing extensive customer service and charges slightly higher prices than the other two stores. Top management of Holmgren-Mulchan is considering closing Store 3. The three stores are close enough together that management estimates closing Store 3 would cause sales at Store 1 to increase by $74,000, and sales at Store 2 to increase by $133,000. Closing Store 3 is not expected to cause any change in common fixed costs. Assuming we close Store 3, please answer the following: a. Compute the net increase/decrease in the total monthly sales for Holmgren-Mulchan stores. (Omit the "$" sign in your response. Please use positive values for your response.) expected in total monthly sales $ b.
