            Residual income (RI)



            Formula:



                                                                                                                 Long term loans are
                                                                                                                 normally arranged by
                RI = Controllable profit before interest and tax  -                                            head office and therefore
                                                                                                               not under the managers
                (Controllable investment x required rate of return)                                                    control.






            Where controllable investment = non current assets + net working

            capital.






            Residual income is superior to ROI:

                    • Projects may be rejected using ROI whereas they may increase firm
                       wealth

                    • Using RI all investments which will yield a return higher than the cost of

                       capital are accepted
