This document analyzes the relationship between return on investment (ROI) and return on equity (ROE) for different capital structures. It shows that ROE under a capital structure with debt is higher than an all-equity structure when ROI exceeds the cost of debt, but lower when ROI is below the cost of debt. The break-even point where the ROEs are equal is when ROI matches the cost of debt. It provides an example comparing the ROEs of two capital structures, A and B, at different ROI levels to illustrate this relationship.

ROI ROE Analysis
- Analysis of the relationship between the return
on Investment (ROI) and the Return on Equity (ROE) for different levels of financial leverage . Eg: Korex Ltd requires an invst of 100 million and is considering two capital structures. Capital Structure A Capital Structure B Equity 100 Equity 50 Debt 0 Debt 50 Relationship between ROI & ROE Particulars Capital structure A Capital structure B ROI 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% PBIT (million) 5 10 15 20 25 5 10 15 20 25 Less: int 0 0 0 0 0 5 5 5 5 5 PAT 5 10 15 20 25 0 5 10 15 20 Less :tax 2.5 5 7.5 10 12.5 0 2.5 5 7.5 10 PAT 2.5 5 7.5 10 12.5 0 2.5 5 7.5 10 ROE 2.5% 5% 7.5% 10% 12.5 % 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% ROE ROI 5 10 15 20 25 30 5 10 15 20 25 30 B A Relationship between ROI and ROE - ROE under capital structure A is higher than ROE under capital structure B when ROI < cost of Debt . - ROE under the two capital structures is the same when ROI = cost of Debt . Hence the indifference (break even) value of ROI = cost of Debt. - ROE under capital structure B is higher than the ROE under capital structure A when ROI > cost of Debt Mathematically it can be calculated as follows. ROE = [ROI+(ROI-Kd) D/E] (1-t) Eg : Given D/E =1, Kd=10%, Tax rate = 50% calculate the ROE when the ROI is 15% and 20% - When ROI is 15% ROE = [15+(15-10) 1] (1-0.5) = 10% - When ROI is 20% ROE = [ 20+(20-10) 1] (1-0.5) = 15%
