Hi,
Return of investment – Cost of capital = Residual income
Return of investment – (12% x $200,000) = $36,000
Return of investment – ($24,000) = $36,000
Therefore, $60,000 – ($24,000) = $36,000
Since Return of investment = $60,000 and the total investment (capital employed) = $200,000, the percentage return on the amount invested is:
($60,000 ÷ $200,000) x 100 = 30%Hope this makes sense 🙂
