Answer 1

Answer:

a, Residual income = $48,000

b, Average Operating Assets = $2,300,000

c, Net Operating Income = $410,000

d, Minimum required return = 16%

Explanation:

Given that:

• Net operating income:  $410,000
• Sales: $2,100,000.
• Required rate of return: 16% = 0.16
• Average operating assets: $2,300,000

a, As we know that, residual income for the year is calculated as:

  Residual income = Net operating income - Imputed cost of capital

<=>  Residual income = $410,000 - 16% x 2,300,000

<=> Residual income = $42,000

b, Average Operating Assets = $2,300,000

c, Net Operating Income = $410,000

d, Minimum required return = 16%
