    To be honest, although most people spell it as ROCE, when they speak it they tend to say the whole thing – return on capital employed 🙂
    (In America they do say ‘rock-ee’ but thats is America!!)

    Haha this caused quite a bit of a stir in my F5 class last semester. One guy was adamant it was pronounced “Royce” as in Rolls Royce. 🙂

    My tutor of F6 used to pronounce ‘death tax’ as ‘dess tax’ 🙂 We used to laugh in class…
    But he is an excellent tutor and I’m grateful to him.
