1) Computation of the Right Region's costs:-

Right Region's costs = Budgeted cost + Under budget for Left Region

= $16,300 + $1,300

= $17,600 (Over budget)

 

2) Computation of the each division should be charged for travel services:-

South Division = (7,500 / 15,000) * $210,000

= 0.5 * $210,000

= $105,000

West Division = (7,500 / 15,000) * $210,000

= 0.5 * $210,000

= $105,000

 

3-a) Computation of the profit margin:-

Profit margin = Income from operations / Sales

= $67,045 / $609,500

= 11%

 

3-b). Computation of the investment turnover:-

Investment turnover = Sales / Invested assets

= $609,500 / $265,000

= 2.30 times

 

3-c) Computation of the return on investment (ROI):-

ROI = Profit margin * Investment turnover

= 11% * 2.30

= 25.30%

 

4) Computation of the residual income for division:-

Residual income = Income from operations - (Minimum acceptable Return * Average assets)

= $201,500 - (13% * $408,000)

= $201,550 - $53,040

= $148,510
