Abstract: | Return on investment (ROI) has , over the last 30 years, become the most important performance measure in the business world. It dominates not only internal capital budgeting decisions; it is easily the most important theoretical driver of financial investment decisions. The ROI framework creates a complementary analysis that links investors' decisions outside the firm. Though writers associate reliance on ROI with poor performance, they do not offer definite alternatives. |
