($307,000+116,000)/($1,040,000+$256,000)
423,000/1296,000=32.64%
(511,000+116,000)/(1,550,000+256,000)
627,000/1806,000=34.72%
River division Stream division ROI $307,000/$1,040,000=29.52% $511,000/$1,550,000=32.97% Residual income $307,000-(1040,000×7.01%)=$234,096 $511,000-(1,550,000×7.01%)=$402,345
