    Effect on income = $400 increase

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Product A Product B Total

    Revenue $ 9,400

    Variable cost (9,800 )

    Fixed cost (allocated) (2,100 )

    Operating income (loss) $ (2,500 )

    Effect on income = operating income - fixed costs

    Effect on income = - 2,500 + 2,500 = 400 increase
