Sagot :

Answer:

$73,200

Explanation:

From the above details, we know that;

Residual income =

[Net operating income - (Average operating assets × minimum rate of return)]

= [$295,200 - ($1,110,000 × 20%)]

= [$295,200 - $222,000]

= $73,200

Therefore, the North division's residual income in January is $73,200
