Operating Income                352                                           637

Imputed Cost                         (147)                                          (257)

Residual Income                   205                                          358

Explanation:

step 1 : determine the average invested asset of bboth dividion

beverage division = ( 2500+2400)/2 = 2450

Cheese dividion = (4700 + 4600)/2  =  4650

step 2 : multiply the average invested asset calculated above by the required rate of return of the company to get imputed cost

Beverage Division=  6.00%* 2450 = 147

Cheese division = 6.00% * 4650 = 275

step 3 : deduct the result in step 2 from the operating cost in order to determine the residual income of each dividion.

Answer:

BEVERAGE DECISION ($million) 205

CHEESE DECISION ($million) 358

Step by Step Explanation:

($millions) Beverage Division, Cheese Division

Average assets 2,440 4,650

Targeted return 6% 6%

Target income 147 279

Residual income

Operating income 353 637

Less target income (147) (279)

Residual Income 205, 358

Therefore the residual income for each division is:

BEVERAGE DECISION ($million) 205

CHEESE DECISION ($million) 358

Average asset

Beverage Decision

2,500+2400/2

4,900/2

=2,450

Cheese Decision

4,700+4,600/2

9,300/2

=4,650

Target income

Beverage Decision

6%×2,450=147

Cheese Decision

6%×4,650=279
