Simple ROI vs. ROISimple ROI vs. ROI
The benefit (return) of an investment is The benefit (return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investments; the divided by the cost of the investments; the result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio. result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio. This is referred to as “simple ROI”.This is referred to as “simple ROI”.
ROI= ROI= Gains from investment – Cost of investmentGains from investment – Cost of investment Cost of InvestmentCost of Investment
$700,000 - $500,000 $700,000 - $500,000 = 40%= 40% $500,000$500,000
Simple ROI Investment ExampleSimple ROI Investment Example
ROI is used to compare returns on investment ROI is used to compare returns on investment where the money gained or lost—or the where the money gained or lost—or the money invested—are not easily compared money invested—are not easily compared using monetary values. For example, a using monetary values. For example, a $1,000 investment that earns $50 in interest $1,000 investment that earns $50 in interest obviously generates more cash than a $100 obviously generates more cash than a $100 investment that earns $20 interest, but the investment that earns $20 interest, but the $100 investment earns a higher return. So….$100 investment earns a higher return. So….
Simple ROI Investment ExampleSimple ROI Investment Example
$50/$1,000$50/$1,000
$1050 - $1000$1050 - $1000 = = 50 50 = 5% ROI = 5% ROI
$1000 $1000$1000 $1000
$20/$100$20/$100
$120-100$120-100 = = 2020 = 20% ROI = 20% ROI
