I want to know wat is the difference between Return on Assets (ROA)
and Return on Investment (ROI)

15 April 2009 An indicator of how profitable a company is relative to its total assets. ROA gives an idea as to how efficient management is at using its assets to generate earnings. Calculated by dividing a company's annual earnings by its total assets, ROA is displayed as a percentage. Sometimes this is referred to as "return on investment".

The formula for return on assets is:


=Net Inome/Total Assets
