    Hi sir, I went through some of the past exam papers and realise sometimes the examiner use operating profit or profit for the year to calculate ROCE.

    My question is, when do I have to use the former and the latter (profit for the year)?

    The examiner will most frequently give you a set of ratios already calculated from last year or a competitor …

    In most situations the basis of the calculation of these comparable ratios will be given (or explained)

    If there is no guidance given in the question, I suggest that you use PBIT as the numerator

    OK?
