Frequently asked questions
Should average assets be used?
Usually yes, because revenue covers a period while assets are a balance that can change during it.
Should the inputs use the same period?
Yes. Use figures from the same reporting period and accounting definition so balances and flows remain comparable.
Is the result enough for a decision?
No. The metric summarizes a numerical relationship; compare it with company history, industry context, and accounting or operating policies.
