hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of WallStreetmojo watch the video
[15]
till the end and also if you are new to this channel then you can subscribe us
[19]
by clicking the bell icon friends today we are going to learn a topic that is
[23]
return on average assets formula which is ROAA
[26]
again a part of our ratio analysis chapter now if you consider this formula
[34]
return on average assets formula it is basically your net income that is after
[39]
deducting all the operating expenses and any other extraordinary ancillary
[45]
expenses you get your net income divided by the average total assets so what is
[51]
this formula all about so we need to learn that now the return on the average
[56]
assets formula helps to helps to find out the how how far the company is
[62]
utilizing its assets this is what we are supposed to analyze so for investor
[67]
every profitability ratio is important and only the net profit
[76]
margin only the net profit margin and the gross margin won't help so the
[83]
investor also needs to know how well the assets are being utilized to generate
[87]
the profits so the ROAA that is a return on average assets formula finds
[94]
out just that a profitability ratio you can say just as the profitability ratio
[102]
that tells us how well a company uses its assets to fuel its profits
[112]
so this is the exact interpretation now here's the return on the average as it's
[118]
a formula the return or than the average asset formula we just saw is ROAA
[124]
is basically your net income divided by the average
[129]
total assets this is going to be a formula now let's understand and take
[135]
this with the help of an example of ROAA formula let's take a simple example to
[140]
calculate ROAA formula let's say there is a company called eyelash
[148]
eyelash company that is some following in information as followed the net
[152]
income which is 1,50,000 then we have the beginning total assets as
[163]
5,00,000 and our ending total assets
[170]
but ending total assets are going to be $4,00,000 so what we need to
[176]
find is the ROAA first we'll add up the beginning and the ending total
[182]
assets and then take a simple average of this two and then we'll put put down in
[187]
the formula so first thing that first and foremost is the average
[193]
total assets right so this is the first and the
[198]
foremost thing and that's going to be is equal to bracket open up the beginning
[204]
total assets plus your ending total assets divided by two that will be your
[208]
average which is your 4,50,000 now using the return on the
[213]
average asset formula we can return on the average assets ROAA
[219]
formula is equal to your net income divided by your average total assets so
[226]
let's put down the number net income divided by the average total assets and
[233]
this is going to be your answer 1,50,000/4,50,000
[237]
so 33.33 is your return on average total assets
[243]
right now the explanation part some of the explanation part on the return on
[249]
average assets formula
[253]
in the in this ratio there are 2 components the first component is the
[258]
net income now if we can look into the net income statement of the company we
[263]
would be able to find out the net income so the income statement basically helps
[268]
you to find this
[271]
have you to be able to find out the net income and net income is a last item in
[276]
the income statement so when we deduct the taxes when we deduct the taxes from
[283]
the profit before tax the PBT we get the profit after tax that is the PAT
[288]
or the net income so the second component in the ratio that we have is
[295]
the average total assets now to find out the assets we need to look into the
[304]
financial statement the FS of the company that is the balance sheet and in
[309]
the balance sheet we'll find both the current assets and the non current
[313]
assets nca so to find out the average total average total assets we need to
[321]
consider the total assets of a fork for both at the beginning and
[327]
at the end and then we need to add up the beginning of the total assets and
[331]
the ending total assets and divide the sum by to get the simple average now
[336]
what is exactly the use of this particular formula let's understand the
[341]
application of ROAA formula from the two point of view the first for the
[346]
investors now for the investors it is important to know whether the company is
[353]
a financially strong and healthy you can see When financially if they are strong
[359]
or not so to know that they use the ROAA formula and to see how well the
[365]
company is utilizing its assets second if the ROAA that is your ratio
[372]
if that is lower it is easily understood that the company is
[378]
higher the company's having the higher assets
[385]
intensive it's a higher higher asset intensive company on the other hand if
[389]
ROAA ratio if this is higher in nature then in that scenario or the
[398]
company is a lower asset intensive so the investor need to look at the
[407]
industry first before interpreting the ratio because the higher asset you can
[415]
see the higher asset intensive industry but the higher asset industry you
[422]
consistency first before interpreting the ratio because the higher asset
[426]
intensive industry will always result in the lower our ROAA ratio for the
[433]
company and vice versa the case so for the management the ratio is also
[438]
important because the ratio can talk a lot about the performance of the company
[444]
and by comparing the ratio with a similar company under the same industry
[447]
management would be able to understand how well the company is doing now this
[455]
is basically your your calculator for the ROAA formula the net income
[461]
let's say if we put 1,00,000 over here in the average total assets as 1 million
[467]
then the return on the total asset formula is 10% so we will write
[472]
something over here for our analysis purpose net income the average total
[477]
assets and then we have the ROAA formula so if your net
[486]
income let's say if it increases keeping your average total as same what exactly
[493]
happens let's increase this to 1,10,00 so it becomes 11% so this
[500]
also increases and absolutely if your income decreases then keeping this as
[509]
same your are ROAA formula also decreases you just will need to decrease
[516]
this to let's say 9,00,000 and sorry 90,000 if it reduce 90,000 it
[523]
will reduce to 9% but at the same time if we reduce the average total assets to
[529]
let's say 9,00,000 your ROAA formula will also come back to 10% so at
[535]
the end of the day you can put down some numbers play with the numbers and you
[539]
can you will come up with some really interesting interpretation of the
[543]
formula so that's it for this particular topic if you have learned and enjoyed
