What is Return on Assets?
Return on Assets (ROA) is a financial ratio that measures a company's profitability. It is calculated by dividing a company's net income by its total assets.
Return on Assets is a good way to determine how efficient a company is at generating profit from its assets.
Return on Assets is a useful metric for comparing companies in the same industry. It's also a good way to determine whether or not a company is generating a profit from its assets.
If a company has a high ROA, it's a good sign that the company is generating a profit from its assets. If a company has a low ROA, it's a good sign that the company is not generating a profit from its assets.
