Residual Income = $ 22,100

Explanation:

Residual income is the excess of the controllable profit over the opportunity cost of capital invested.

It is computed as follows:

Residual income = Controllable profit - (cost of capital * operating assets)

Controllable profit = 392,000 - 192,000 - 97,000 = $103,000

Residual income = 103,000 - (10% * 809,000) = 22,100

Residual Income = $ 22,100
