    For ROCE, we should take Operating income/Non current liabilities+Equity ok

    My doubt is whether we should take any long term pension liabilities or deferred tax liabilities or deferred revenue which is included in the non-current liabilities section of SOFP or not?

    I’m confused because these items are not exactly injected into the company for running its operations

    Inclusion of long-term debt makes sense because the company can use those funds for its operations
    But Deferred revenue is just some revenue recorded in advance, pension liabilities is also a sort of long term expense which is not exactly an injection of funds in the company same goes with Deferred tax liabilities..

    But the formula says to take Non-current liabilities blindly

    There is no strict rule. If it is relevant in the exam then if you state your assumption and why, then you will get the marks.
