ROI (Return on Investment) = (Net Profit / Cost of Investment) × 100. Net profit is the gain minus the cost. If you invest $1,000 and earn $1,500 back, net profit is $500 and ROI = ($500 / $1,000) × 100 = 50%. A positive ROI means you gained more than you spent; negative means you lost money.
A good ROI depends on context and risk. Stock market investments historically average 7-10% annually. Digital marketing ROI averages 200-400%. AI and automation investments often yield 300-500% ROI by replacing hours of manual work. Compare against your industry benchmark and the ROI of alternative uses of the same capital.
ROI measures return relative to total investment cost. ROE (Return on Equity) measures return relative to shareholders' equity and is specific to financial analysis of companies. ROI can be calculated for any investment — marketing campaigns, software tools, hiring — while ROE is primarily an accounting and financial analysis metric.
Calculate hours saved per month × hourly rate to get monthly value. Subtract the tool's monthly cost. Divide by tool cost and multiply by 100 for ROI%. Example: tool saves 20 hrs/month at $50/hr = $1,000 value. Tool costs $100/month. ROI = ($900 / $100) × 100 = 900% monthly ROI. Factor in setup time and learning curve.
Include all direct costs: purchase price, subscription fees, implementation costs, training time, and ongoing maintenance. Don't forget opportunity costs — time spent that could be used elsewhere. For software, include integration costs and workflow disruption during onboarding. Full-cost accounting prevents overestimating ROI on investments with hidden expenses.
