If the Cycle Division buys 1,000 frames from FrameBody, determine the following: (1) effect on the income of the Cycle Division; (2) effect on the income of FrameBody; and (3) effect on the income of TravelVelocity.
b)Assume that FrameBody does not have excess capacity and therefore would lose sales if the frames were sold to the Cycle Division.
