Answer:
Residual income =$6,700
Explanation:
Residual income is the excess of the controllable profit over the opportunity cost of capital invested.
It is used to evaluate the financial performance of a division or department.
The a positive residual value indicate a good performance, hence the higher the residual value the better
It is computed as follows:
Residual income = Controllable profit - (cost of capital× operating assets)
Controllable profit = 47,000
Interest on capital = × 13% × 310,000 = 40300
Residual income = 47,000 - 40,300 = 6700
Residual income =$6,700
