Answer:

Division A  has the  residual income of $6,960. Hence, it is the top performer

Explanation:

Using the residual income performance metric, the division with the highest residual would be considered the top performer.

Residual income = Net operating income - (cost of capital × Operating assets)

Division A= 12,000 - (12%× 42,000)= 6960

Division B = 10,000 - (12% × 45,000)= 4600

Division C = 16,000 - (12% × 80,000)= 6400

Division A  has the  residual income of $6,960. Hence, it is the top performer
