Expert Solution

A)

margin = net income / sales

	Whole company	Goose Division	Ice Division	Joker Division	New Investment Opportunity
	=3000000/9000000	=1000000/3500000	=1200000/3000000	=800000/2500000	=500000/1500000
Margin	33.33%	28.57%	40%	32%	33.33%

B)

turnover = sales

sales are given in the question

C)

ROI = net income / assets

	Whole company	Goose Division	Ice Division	Joker Division	New Investment Opportunity
	=3000000/12200000	=1000000/4000000	=1200000/2600000	=800000/4000000	=500000/1600000
ROI	24.59%	25.00%	46.15%	20.00%	31.25%

residual income = Net income - desired income

where

desried income = 23% x assets

	Whole company	Goose Division	Ice Division	Joker Division	New Investment Opportunity
	=23%*12200000	=23%*4000000	=23%*2600000	=23%*4000000	=23%*1600000
desired income	2806000	920000	598000	920000	368000
Net Income	3000000	1000000	1200000	800000	500000

RI	194000	80000	602000	-120000	132000

A)

since roi of new opportunity is 31.25% which is greater than desired ROI of 23% , company should take this investment

B)

Since Ice divison already has a higher ROI than the new opportunity , it does not need to take it up

C)

Since joker divison has lowest RI of -120000 , it needs the help of the new investment

D)

As a manager , I would offer this investment to joker division since it is performing below par and having this investment can help it achieve positive RI .

Thanks, if you have any doubts please leave a comment and let me know
