    The correct answer is C.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Football Helmets

    Sales revenue $ 340,000

    Variable costs (280,000 )

    Contribution margin $ 60,000

    Fixed costs (110,000 )

    Operating income (loss) $ (50,000 )

    Effect on income = fixed costs - operating income = - 110,000 + 50,000 = - 60,000
