As you know, a company's return on investment (or ROI) is the product of its margin and turnover. Financial analysts often compute and analyze a company's ROI by obtaining the required data from its annual report. Unfortunately, the analyst is usually unable to determine the precise amounts of the company's operating and nonoperating assets. Although this obstacle is a limitation, the information is still useful to some extent.
