Closing a sales office would eliminate direct costs associated with running the office, such as salaries for sales staff and office rent. Discretionary costs, like advertising or employee training, could also be cut. However, "commutted" costs seem to be a typographical error, likely meant to be "committed" costs, which are long-term, fixed costs that cannot be easily eliminated in the short term. Since the term as given doesn't correspond to a recognized category of costs, the assumption is that it's meant to be "no" for being able to eliminate them by closing a sales office.
