Calculate Return on Investment (ROI) from the following details: Net Profit after Tax ₹6,50,000; Rate of Income Tax 50%; 10% Debentures of ₹100 each ₹10,00,000; Fixed Assets at cost ₹22,50,000; Accumulated Depreciation on Fixed Assets up to date ₹2,50,000; Current Assets ₹12,00,000; Current Liabilities ₹4,00,000.
Net Fixed Assets = Fixed Assets (at cost) − Accumulated Depreciation = 22,50,000 − 2,50,000 = ₹20,00,000
Capital Employed = Net Fixed Assets + Current Assets − Current Liabilities = 20,00,000 + 12,00,000 − 4,00,000 = ₹28,00,000
Interest on 10% Debentures = 10% of 10,00,000 = ₹1,00,000
Let Profit before Tax = x. Since Tax Rate = 50%,
x − 0.5x = 6,50,000
x = ₹13,00,000 (Profit before Tax)
Profit before Interest and Tax = Profit before Tax + Interest on Long-term Debt = 13,00,000 + 1,00,000 = ₹14,00,000
Return on Investment = Profit before Interest and Tax ÷ Capital Employed × 100 = 14,00,000 ÷ 28,00,000 × 100 = 50%
