How To Use Return on Investment (ROI)

Return on Investment (ROI) helps you understand how well your business uses its assets to make money. To calculate it, you'll need three key numbers from your financial statements: your income from operations (the money your business makes from its main activities), your average current assets (things like cash and inventory), and your average fixed assets (things like buildings and equipment).

How to Interpret the Results

When you get your ROI results, they'll show up as a percentage. Here's what it means:

For example, if your ROI calculator shows 20%, that means for every CA$100 of assets your business uses, it generates CA$20 in operating profit. This helps you compare your business's performance against similar companies or evaluate different departments within your operation.

Remember, while a higher ROI looks good, it's important to consider other factors like market conditions, industry standards, and whether you're maintaining enough working capital for day-to-day operations.
