Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. The return on investment is  

As we know that  

Return on Investment = Net operating profit ÷ average invested assets × 100

But before that the Net Operating Profit should be determined  

Particulars               Peak           View                  Grand

Sales revenue       $332,000    $233,000           $311,000

Less: Cost of

goods sold          ($204,000)   ($116,000)            ($183,000)

Miscellaneous

operating Expenses ($36,000)   ($30,000)             ($33,000)

Net Profit              $92,000       $87,000               $95,000

Now

Return on Investment is

For peak, it is

= $92,000 ÷ $1,310,000

= 7.02%

for view, it is

= $87,000 ÷ $920,000

= 9.46%

for grand, it is

= $95,000 ÷ $1,105,000

= 8.60%

2. The residual income is  

We know that  

Residual Income = Net operating income - (Minimum required rate of return ×  average invested assets)

For Peak, it is

= ($92,000 - (5.01% of $1,310,000)

= $26,369

For view, it is  

= ($87,000 - (5.01% of $920,000)

= $40,908

And, for grand, it is

= ($95,000 - (5.01% of $1,105,000)

= $39,640
