*(c)

Your answer is incorrect. Try again. Compute the expected ROI in 2013 for the Home Division, assuming the following independent changes to actual data. (Round ROI to 1 decimal place, e.g. 1.5.)

The expected ROI

(1) Variable cost of goods sold is decreased by 6%.

% (2) Average operating assets are decreased by 11%.

% (3) Sales are increased by $199,020, and this increase is expected to increase contribution margin by $90,070.

%

Explanation / Answer

1. If Variable cost of goods sold is decreased by 6%,

Controllable Margin = 427,690 - 823,560 X 6% = $ 378,276.4

So, The expected ROI = ($ 378,276.4/$2,499,300) X 100 = 15.1%

2. If Average operating assets are decreased by 11%.

The expected ROI = (($ 427,690/($2,499,300*89%))*100 = 19.2%

3. If Sales are increased by $199,020, and this increase is expected to increase contribution margin by $90,070.

The expected ROI = (($427,690+$90070)/$2499300)*100 = 20.7%
