    At the beginning of 20X2, a division has capital employed, consisting of non-current assets of $2 million (at carrying value) and working capital of $0.2 million. These are expected to earn a profit in 20X2 of $0.5 million, after depreciation of $0.4 million. A new machine will be installed at the beginning of 20X2. It will cost $0.8 million and will require an additional $0.1 million in working capital. It will add $0.35 million to divisional profits before deducting depreciation. This machine will have a four-year life and no residual value: depreciation is by the straight-line method. When calculating ROI, capital employed is taken at its mid-year value.

    What is the expected ROI of the division in 20X2?

    Is it the Capital employed you are struggling with…..

    At the start of year = 2 + 0.2 + 0.8 + 0.1 = 3.1M

    Cap employed at the end is 3.1M less depreciation of 0.4 + 0.2 = 0.6M, so is 2.5M

    So cap employed mid year is (3.1 + 2.5) / 2 = 2.8M
