    Only the Phoenix

    Explanation:

    According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

    ROI of Red, White And Brew Segment = Controllable Margin : Total Investment * 100

    $250,000 : $2,000,000 * 100 = 12.5%

    ROI of Phoenix = 25%

    ROI of Chicago = 9.25%

    So only phoenix will increase the red, white and brew division's ROI, Because Chicago ROI is less than ROI of Red, White and Brew Segment.
