Abstract
The paper examines theoretical assumptions and factors regarding the implementation of residual income concept in measuring company's financial performance. Implementation of residual income concept has been empirically tested on a selected sample of Croatian companies. Findings resulting from conducted calculations have shown that only twelve (8.11%) out of 148 analysed companies recorded residual income for their owners within the observed period with a 6.80% average rate of residual income return compared to equity invested, while the equity invested in all other companies was impaired by an economic loss of 8.26%. If the entire sample is observed, there has been consolidated economic loss of 6.18%. Research results can be found useful by researchers, managers, teachers and others interested in measuring company's financial performance.
