ROA Discussion 1
One of the viewers pointed out not incorrectly that one definition of return on asset - so this whole video's going to be on return on asset - that one definition of return on asset, and if you look it up on some of the finance sites or even some finance textbooks, they'll tell you it's net income over total assets.발음듣기
And other sources, namely Wikipedia, will tell you that it is actually - so this is one definition of return on asset.발음듣기
Net income plus interest. So they're adding back your interest. And then they're subtracting out the tax savings due to interest.발음듣기
And when it makes more sense to raise money with debt versus equity, because of the cost of interest.발음듣기
And then I'll add one more definition to this video, just because I think it's worth talking about.발음듣기
And I think this is kind of a general theme in finance, is that there's all these formulas for things.발음듣기
And it's also important to realize that there are multiple ways of defining the exact same terms.발음듣기
And I think you'll also be surprised by how many people won't be able to tell you what they mean by ROA.발음듣기
EBIT divided by assets. But just so you know what EBIT is, EBIT is just Earnings Before Interest and Taxes.발음듣기
And you might already say, wait if I took net income - let's actually talk about this for a second.발음듣기
You might immediately say, if I took net income - so let's remember EBIT is just an acronym for Earnings Before Interest and Taxes.발음듣기
So let's see. If our earnings are $350,000. And we were to add back the taxes and the interest.발음듣기
And we add back the interest, at least in this example, we get to an operating profit number.발음듣기
So you might say, why is there a different term EBIT instead of, why don't people just always use operating profit?발음듣기
And the reason why there's a different term is, sometimes you can have the non-operating profit.발음듣기
So let's say that out of this $10 million of assets - and I didn't go there in the first example because I didn't really want to complicate the issue, but I'll complicate the issue a little bit now.발음듣기
Let's say out of this $10 million of assets, let's say that $9 million are operating assets.발음듣기
They're the enterprise. They're the things that are needed to generate the operating profit.발음듣기
And then at the end of the day, you're going to tax at 30%, so this should be $7,000 more of earnings.발음듣기
So that makes sense. $357,000. But this is the difference between operating income and EBIT.발음듣기
So EBIT, in the case that I just added some investment income, would be $1,010,000, while operating profit would be $1 million.발음듣기
I didn't want to go there in the first video, and that's why I just said operating profit divided by assets.발음듣기
But if you really consider all of the assets, and if you assume that there are some assets there that are non-operating.발음듣기
They're not really used to make widgets, or to sell widgets or market widgets, or help the CEO in any way do his or her job.발음듣기
But in general if you take EBIT and you take out the non-operating income, you get back to operating profits.발음듣기
And so you can already imagine that both EBIT and the way I defined it initially, operating profit divided by assets.발음듣기
What context? Are you trying to pass the CFA exam, or are you trying to impress your MBA professor?발음듣기
And there, ROA, the Return on Assets is telling you, how good is this company at getting a return out of this thing right here?발음듣기
I don't want to think about, is their CFO good at getting a better interest rate than another CFO?발음듣기
So if I calculate it using you EBIT divided by assets, or operating profit divided by assets, if I use either of these as my metric for ROA and Company A has a 10% ROA and Company B has a 15% ROA, then I say, you know what?발음듣기
Because it tells you either how much operating profit is being generated from here, or it could tell you how much EBIT.발음듣기
Or it holds some forward contracts to hedge its exposure to oil or foreign currency or something.발음듣기
So in general if you want to know what I think is the best ROA, I would say it's EBIT over assets, which is very close to operating profit over assets.발음듣기
Well, net income over assets, I think the reason why that definition exists is because: one, net income does factor into these things that frankly I didn't want to think as much about.발음듣기
But when you talk about return, what you get off the asset, you still are going to pay taxes on them.발음듣기
But the reason why I don't like that is this definition does not separate out that one company might be better at evading taxes or paying taxes.발음듣기
While this is taking into consideration some of the factors on that side of the balance sheet.발음듣기
I'll continue the example in the next video, and I'll explain a little bit about the tax savings from carrying debt or interest.발음듣기
