ROI = (NI + int exp) / Average Total Investment |
|
Return on Owners' Equity (defined & formula) |
rate of return (earnings) on all stockholders' investment
= NI / Average Stockholders' Equity |
|
Return on Common Stockholders' Equity (defined & formula) |

|
Residual Income (defined & formula) |
excess of an entity's dollar amount of income over the dollar amount of its required return on average investment (based on hurdle rate of return)
RI = NI - (Average Invested Capital * Hurdle Rate)
|
|
Economic Value Added (EVA) (defined) |
entity's economic profit (as opposed to accounting profit)
-uses accounting earnings before deducting interest & deducts that from the dollar value of the opportunity cost associated with LT debt and shareholders' equity |
|
EVA (formula) |
Earnings Before Interest - [(opportunity cost) * (LT debt + shareholders' equity)]
**cost of capital/hurdle rate may be used as opportunity cost |
|
EPS - Earnings Per Share (defined & formula) |
indicates ability to pay dividends to common shareholders
= (NI - Preferred Dividends obligation) / weighted-average number of shares outstanding |
|
P/E Ratio - Price/Earnings Ratio |
measure of how the market values the stock; "how many times" EPS is built into the market price of the stock
= Market Price for a Common Share / EPS |
