Answer:

a. 21

b. $378,950

Step-by-step explanation:

ROI = (Net operating income / Average operating asset)100

= ($612,150 / $2,915,000)100

= 21

Residual income = Net operating income - (average operating asset x minimum rate of return)

Residual income = $612,150 - ($2,915,000 x 8%)

= $612,150-$233,200

= $378,950

*we used controllable margin because it is in segmented department wherein fixed cost is more complicated to allocate each department.
