ROAReturn on Assets

ROCEReturn on Capital Employed

ROICReturn on Invested Capital

ROEReturn on Equity

ROA tells you what earnings were generated from total assets. ROA for can vary substantially and will be highly dependent on the industry. This is why when using ROA as a comparative measure, it is best to compare it against a company's previous ROA numbers or the ROA of a similar company.

Net IncomeTotal Assets

Used to assess a company's efficiency at allocating the capital to drive profitable investments. ROIC gives a sense of how well a company is using its money to generate returns. Comparing a company's return on capital (ROIC) with its cost of capital (WACC) reveals whether invested capital was used effectively.

Net Income – DividendsTotal

Capital

A ratio that indicates the efficiency and profitability of a company's capital investments. ROCE should always be higher than the rate at which the company borrows, otherwise any increase in borrowing will reduce shareholders' earnings.

EBIT

Total Assets - Current Liabilities The amount of net income returned as a percentage of 

shareholders equity. ROE measures a company's profitability by revealing how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. ROE is useful for comparing profitability of a company to other firms in the same industry.
