Some division financial measures for 2020 are as follows: Home Insert Page Layout Formulas Data A B C New Car Performance 1 2 Total assets 3 Current liabilities 4 Operating income Division $35,000,000 Parts Division $32,312,500 $ 6,100,000 $ 8,700,000 $ 2,450,000 $ 2,585,000 5 Required rate of return 12% 12% 1. Calculate return on investment (ROI) for each division using operating income as a measure of income and total assets as a measure of investment. 2. Calculate residual income (RI) for each division using operating income as a measure of income and total assets minus current liabilities as a measure of investment. 3. William Abraham, the new car division manager, argues that the performance parts division has "loaded up on a lot of short-term debt" to boost its RI.
