  • That is one of the definitions. The standard formula takes out the effect of interest and tax savings from interest and is (net income + interest - tax savings from interest)/Assets which is essentially saying how much earnings would I have if I weren't paying debt. If you wanted a pre-tax ROA than you could just add back interest and taxes and divide by Assets (or EBIT/Assets which is, for the purposes of this examples, the same as Op profit/Assets

  • @iNinjaNotes Thanks for explaining. :)

  • @Ren1026cbcc Sales are NOT taxed. Only pre tax income is taxed, which should be one of your last numbers on your income statement before calculating tax. All of those expenses like cost of goods sold, interest expense, marketing expenses reduces your taxable income. If you were to tax sales @ 30% it would be $900,000 of tax. This wouldn't make any sense right? Because the cost of all the goods you produced is $1,000,000.

    Always make sure that the numbers make sense!

  • Great slow explanation.  Thank you. Very nice to have information like this available.

  • Why is it that only the last $500,000 is taxed? Wouldn't the sales ($3,000,000) be taxed? Please let me know what I am missing.
