4. Discuss the evaluation of the two divisions, using the performance measures previously determined in parts (1), (2), and (3).

On the basis of income from operations, the Division is more profitable. However, income from operations does not consider the amount of invested assets in each division. On the basis of the rate of return on investment, the Division is more profitable. Even though the Division has a higher profit margin, the Division has a higher investment turnover, which generates the higher rate of return on investment. On the basis of residual income, the Division is the more profitable of the two divisions.
