Explanation:

ROI = (Net operating income / Average operating asset)100

       = ($612,150 / $2,915,000)100

       = 21

Residual income = Net operating income - (average operating asset x               minimum rate of return)

Residual income = $612,150 - ($2,915,000 x 8%)

                            = $612,150-$233,200

                            = $378,950
