Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
ROI = Net operating income ÷ Average operating assets
20% = Net operating income ÷ Average operating assets
Net operating income = 20% × Average operating assets
Residual income = Net operating income - (Average operating assets × Minimum required rate of return)
$50,000 = Net operating income - (Average operating assets × 12%)
$50,000 = (20% × Average operating assets)- (Average operating assets × 12%)
$50,000 = 8% × Average operating assets
Average operating assets = $50,000 ÷ 8% = $625,000
