The following information relates to Kew Company's Vale Division for last year: sales $500,000 variable costs 300,000 fixed costs 50,000 return on investment 25% minimum required rate of return 6% Calculate the residual income reported by Vale Division last year.

$114,000

Explanation:

The computation of the residual income is shown below:

As we know that

Residual Income = Net operating Income - Average Operating assets × Required rate of return

where,

Net Operating Income is

= Sales Revenue - Variable Costs - Fixed Costs

= $500,000 - $300,000 - $50,000

= $150,000

And,

Average operating Assets is

= Net Operating Income ÷ Return on Investment

= $150,000 ÷ 0.25

= $600,000

So, the residual income is

= $150,000 - $600,000 × 6%

= $150,000 - $36,000

= $114,000

rational decision making is a multi-step process for making choices between alternatives. the process of rational decision making favors logic, objectivity, and analysis over subjectivity and insight. the word “rational” in this context does not mean sane or clear-headed as it does in the colloquial sense.
