  • 10 risk-adjusted return on capital

    Fin
    return on capital calculated in a way that takes into account the risks associated with income.
    EXAMPLE
    Being able to compare a high-risk, potentially high-return investment with a low-risk, lower-return investment helps answer a key question that confronts every investor: is it worth the risk?
         There are several ways to calculate riskadjusted return. Each has its strengths and shortcomings. All require particular data, such as an investment’s rate of return, the risk-free return rate for a given period, and a market’s performance and its standard deviation.
         The choice of calculation depends on an investor’s focus: whether it is on upside gains or downside losses.
         Perhaps the most widely used is the Sharpe ratio. This measures the potential impact of return volatility on expected return and the amount of return earned per unit of risk. The higher a fund’s Sharpe ratio, the better its historical risk-adjusted performance, and the higher the number the greater the return per unit of risk. The formula is:
    (Portfolio return – Risk-free return)/Std deviation of portfolio return = Sharpe ratio
    Take, for example, two investments, one returning 54%, the other 26%. At first glance, the higher figure clearly looks like the better choice, but because of its high volatility it has a Sharpe ratio of 0.279, while the investment with a lower return has a ratio of 0.910. On a risk-adjusted basis the latter would be the wiser choice.
         The Treynor ratio also measures the excess of return per unit of risk. Its formula is:
    (Portfolio return – Risk-free return)/ Portfolio’s beta = Treynor ratio
    In this formula (and others that follow), beta is a separately calculated figure that describes the tendency of an investment to respond to marketplace swings. The higher beta the greater the volatility, and vice versa.
         A third formula, Jensen’s measure, is often used to rate a money manager’s performance against a market index, and whether or not a investment’s risk was worth its reward. The formula is:
    (Portfolio return – Risk-free return) – Portfolio beta × (Benchmark return – Riskfree return) = Jensen’s measure

  • 11 rate of return

    Fin
    an accounting ratio of the income from an investment to the amount of the investment, used to measure financial performance.
    EXAMPLE
    There is a basic formula that will serve most needs, at least initially:
    [(Current value of amount invested – Original value of amount invested) / Original value of amount invested] × 100% = rate of return
    If $1,000 in capital is invested in stock, and one year later the investment yields $1,100, the rate of return of the investment is calculated like this:
    [(1100 – 1000) / 1000] × 100% = 100 / 1000 × 100% = 10% rate of return
    Now, assume $1,000 is invested again. One year later, the investment grows to $2,000 in value, but after another year the value of the investment falls to $1,200. The rate of return after the first year is:
    [(2000 – 1000) / 1000] × 100% = 100%
    The rate of return after the second year is:
    [(1200 – 2000) / 2000] × 100% = – 40%
         The average annual return for the two years (also known as average annual arithmetic return) can be calculated using this formula:
    (Rate of return for Year 1 + Rate of return for Year 2) /2 = average annual return
         Accordingly:
    (100% + – 40%) /2 = 30%
    The average annual rate of return is a percentage, but one that is accurate over only a short period, so this method should be used accordingly.
         The geometric or compound rate of return is a better yardstick for measuring investments over the long term, and takes into account the effects of compounding. This formula is more complex and technical.
         The real rate of return is the annual return realized on an investment, adjusted for changes in the price due to inflation. If 10% is earned on an investment but inflation is 2%, then the real rate of return is actually 8%.

  • 19 asset turnover

    Fin
    the ratio of a firm’s sales revenue to its total assets, used as a measure of the firm’s business efficiency.
    EXAMPLE
    Asset turnover’s basic formula is simply sales divided by assets:
    Sales revenue/Total assets
    Most experts recommend using average total assets in this formula. To determine this figure, total assets at the beginning of the year are added to total assets at the end of the year and divided by two. If, for instance, annual sales totaled $4.5 million, and total assets were $1.84 million at the beginning of the year and $1.78 million at the year end, the average total assets would be $1.81 million, and the asset turnover ratio would be:
    4,500,000/1,810,000 = 2.49
    A variation of the formula is:
    Sales revenue/Fixed assets
    If average fixed assets were $900,000, then asset turnover would be:
    4,500,000/900,000 = 5
    Asset turnover numbers are useful for comparing competitors within industries, and for growth companies to gauge whether or not they are growing revenue in healthy proportion to assets. Too high a ratio may suggest overtrading: too much sales revenue with too little investment. Conversely, too low a ratio may suggest undertrading and inefficient management of resources. A declining ratio may be indicative of a company that overinvested in plant, equipment, or other fixed assets, or is not using existing assets effectively.

  • 20 return on investment

    Fin
    a ratio of the profit made in a financial year as a percentage of an investment
    Abbr. ROI
    EXAMPLE
    The most basic expression of ROI can be found by dividing a company’s net profit (also called net earnings) by the total investment (total debt plus total equity), then multiplying by 100 to arrive at a percentage:
    Net profit/Total investment × 100 = ROI
    If, say, net profit is $30 and total investment is $250, the ROI is:
    30/250 = 0.12 × 100 = 12%
    A more complex variation of ROI is an equation known as the Du Pont formula:
    (Net profit after taxes/ Total assets) = (Net profit after taxes/ Sales) × Sales/Total assets
    If, for example, net profit after taxes is $30, total assets are $250, and sales are $500, then:
    30/ 250 = 30/ 500 × 500/250 =12% = 6% × 2 = 12%
    Champions of this formula, which was developed by the Du Pont Company in the 1920s, say that it helps reveal how a company has both deployed its assets and controlled its costs, and how it can achieve the same percentage return in different ways.
         For shareholders, the variation of the basic ROI formula used by investors is:
    Net income + (current value – original value) /original value × 100 = ROI
    If, for example, somebody invests $5,000 in a company and a year later has earned $100 in dividends, while the value of the shares is $5,200, the return on investment would be:
    100 + (5,200 – 5,000)/ 5,000 × 100 (100 + 200)/ 5,000 × 100 = 300/ 5,000 = 0.06 × 100 = 6% ROI
         It is vital to understand exactly what a return on investment measures, for example assets, equity, or sales. Without this understanding, comparisons may be misleading. It is also important to establish whether the net profit figure used is before or after provision for taxes.
