Answer:

Residual income= 346,750

Explanation:

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

It is used to evaluate the financial performance of a division or department

It is computed as follows:

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

Net income - 766,500

investment asset-3,650,000

Cost of capital - 11.5%

Residual income =  766,500 - (11.5%×3,650,000) = 346750

Residual income= 346,750
