What is Return on Investment (ROI) & How To Calculate It?

How To Calculate Return on Investment (ROI)?Return on Investment (ROI) is a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency and profitability of an investment by comparing the amount of return gained to the amount originally invested.

Why is Return on Investment (ROI) important?

Return on Investment (ROI) is important because it helps businesses evaluate the efficiency and profitability of their investments, allowing them to make informed decisions about allocating resources.

An Easy Way To Understand Return on Investment (ROI):

Let's say you spend $100 on an ad campaign and it brings in $500 in sales. Your ROI is the $400 profit divided by the $100 you invested, expressed as a percentage (400%).

How To Calculate Return on Investment (ROI)?

To calculate ROI, first determine the net profit (total revenue minus total costs) generated by your investment. Then, divide the net profit by the total cost of the investment. Finally, multiply the result by 100 to express ROI as a percentage.

For example, if a marketing campaign costs $5,000 and generates $15,000 in revenue, the net profit is $10,000. The ROI would be ($10,000 / $5,000) x 100 = 200%.
