Explanation / Answer

Answer of Part 1:

For Beverage Division:

Average Invested Assets = (Beginning Invested Assets + Ending Invested Assets) /2
Average Invested Assets = ($2,697 + $2,611) /2
Average Invested Assets = $2,654

Return on investment = Net Operating Income / Average Invested Assets
Return on Investment = $367 / $2,654
Return on Investment = 13.83%

For Cheese Division:

Average Invested Assets = (Beginning Invested Assets + Ending Invested Assets) /2
Average Invested Assets = ($4,490 + $4,418) /2
Average Invested Assets = $4,454

Return on investment = Net Operating Income / Average Invested Assets
Return on Investment = $652 / $4,454
Return on Investment = 14.64%

Answer of Part 2:

For Beverage Division:

Profit Margin = Operating Income / Sales
Profit Margin = $367 / $2,699
Profit Margin = 13.60%

For Cheese Division:

Profit Margin = Operating Income / Sales
Profit Margin = $652 / $3,943
Profit Margin = 16.54%

Answer of Part 3:

For Beverages Division:

Investment Turnover = Sales / Average Invested Assets
Investment Turnover = $2,699 / $2,654
Investment Turnover =1.02 times

For Cheese Division:

Investment Turnover = Sales / Average Invested Assets
Investment Turnover = $3,943 / $4,454
Investment Turnover =0.89 times

Answer of Part 4:

For Beverages Division:

Targeted Income = Average Invested Assets * Required Rate of Return
Targeted Income = $2,654*6%
Targeted Income = $159

Residual Income = Targeted Income – Net Income
Residual Income = $159 - $367
Residual Income = -$208

For Cheese Division:

Targeted Income = Average Invested Assets * Required Rate of Return
Targeted Income = $4,454*6%
Targeted Income = $267

Residual Income = Targeted Income – Net Income
Residual Income = $267 - $652
Residual Income = -$385
