Explanation / Answer

Ans. 1 Sales                                   $1230000

COGS                                            $740000

Operating Exp.                              $153000

Op. Income                                   $337000

ROI                         = 337000/3500000 = 9.63%

Profit Margin           = 337000/1230000 = 27.40%

Normal Return    = 3500000X12% = $420000

Residual Loss        = 337000-420000 = ($83000)

2A Revised COGS = (740000X1.10) = $814000

Profit = $1230000-$814000-153000 =$263000

ROI = 263000/3500000 = 7.51%

Residual income = $263000-$420000 = ($157000)

2B Operating Exp. (153000+74000) = $227000

Profit = 1230000-740000-227000 = $263000

ROI = 7.51%

Residual income/loss = ($157000)

2C Operating Exp.= 153000X.80 = $122400

Profit = $1230000-740000-122400 = $367600

ROI = $367600/3500000 = 10.50%

Residual income/ (Loss) = $367600-3500000 = ($52400)    

2D Revised Average Assets = (3500000-295000) =$3205000

ROI = $337000/3205000= 10.51%

Normal Return = (3500000X12%) = $384600

Residual income    = ($337000-384600) = ($47600)

2E Revised Hurdle Rate = 9%

Normal Return = (3500000X9%) =$315000

Actual Return =$337000

Residual Income   = ($337000-315000) = $22000

ROI = 9.63%
