Vinod kumar  |  Argues in support of  " ROIC"  |  1 year ago
i think ROIC is better because it gives an easy way to assessing how well company is running and generate cash flow relative to invested capital.
Mathew Cherian  |  Argues in support of  " ROCE"  |  3 years ago
ROCE is better known as ROA and is known as the 'acid test' one of the most important measures of a companies performance. Interest cost is controlable cost so ROIC or known as ROI is a secondary measure of corporate performance.
Kausik Panda  |  Argues in support of  " ROCE"  |  3 years ago
ROCE might be a better measure of value creation. ROCE is a pre-tax measure of return on capital, so if the firm has debt, it is inappropriate to compare it directly to WACC.

I think Basel II is fine. Basel II needs a fundamental rethink. That rethink must address the systemic issues that individual firms cannot, and recognize the homogenizing, pro-cyclical failings of consensus thinking. It may just be time for a...

We need a Basel III for a new order. We are probably having recession and food price inflation at the same time. That is what makes this different. This is a serious financial crisis of our lifetime. It is the end of an era. The Basel II agreement...

Economic capital is the capital requirement of a financial intermediary who has risky lending practices u. International Bank of Resettlement has fixed some constants which one has to multiply the liabilities and the risky portfolio lended out and add them up to come up with this capital requriement.

Risk adjusted performance measure is the normal performance measure say Ks multiplied by the exponetial of probability of default which is called the risk nuetral return. Note: Suppose if a bond is selling at 108 then survival probability is 1/108((Px100+(1-P)50)=100 where 50% is t...

Recovery of its due has been a hectic exercise for the Banks in the absence of a special legislation. ‘Non-performing Assets’ were growing and a need was felt to reduce the ‘Non-performing Assets’ of the Banks drastically. As the recovery through Courts was a difficult exercise for the Banks, initially, a special legislation called ‘The Recovery of Debts due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 1993’ was enacted creating a Special Tribunal called ‘Debt Recovery Tribunal’. Under the Act, the Banks are entitled to approach the Tribunal by filing an ‘Original Application’ which is similar to filing a suit in Civil Court proceedings. However, unlike the ‘Civil Court’ which is supposed to follow the ‘Civil Procedure Code’, a special and simple procedure has been prescribed under ‘The Recovery of Debts due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 1993’. At the end of adjudication, the Tribunal is supposed to grant a certificate called ‘Recovery Certificate’ infavour of the Bank...

Accounting of revenues costs in Entertainment Ind. 13 May 2010 2,927 views No Comment   A common practice amongst media owners is the bundling of space across various products, programmes, channels, publications and portals.

The segments within the industry include TV broadcasting, publishing, radio, new media, filmed entertainment, software production, music and events.

Abraham Lincoln once said that if he were given eight hours to chop down a tree, he would spend six hours sharpening his ax and two hours chopping down the tree. That is one of the true characteristics of a leader. We all should take time to sharpen our axes - by reading!  Believe it or not, the average American reads just one book a year. What that means to you and me is that if we only read one book a month in our field, we will be twelve years ahead of the average person!   The late Earl Nightingale, in his book, The Strangest Secret , said that if we read for two hours every day on any subject, in five years, we would become national experts on that particular subject. And in ten years, we would have the equivalent of a Ph.D!   Reading quality books is the ultimate joy in life. It rekindles hope and takes a person to new heights. It rejuvenates and gives a boost to any person.   We can no longer make excuses about not having time to read. Today we can even buy most books on...

A Sufi Story Once upon a time, a fox that lost its legs lived in a forest. A forester who used to hunt saw the animal and wondered how it got its food. One day, he noticed a tiger approaching. The beast was dragging a fresh kill behind. It lay down on its favorite spot – incidentally, near the fox hole – and gorged on the meat. After its belly was full, it got up and rambled away. The fox ate the rest. This happened repeatedly. The man thought: “This is indeed mysterious. It must be the god that instructs the tiger to bring the fox, food. I’m a staunch believer in god and if I sit in a corner without hunting, I’m sure I will also receive divine kindness”. Days passed and he starved and became skin and bones. As he was dying, he heard a voice: “See the Truth! Why didn’t you follow the example of that tiger instead of imitating the fox” (And Rumi said “You have feet; why pretend that you’re a lame?)   Source: Indian Express dated 18 th Sept 2011
