ROIC Formula

Return on Capital (ROIC) = After-tax Operating Income / Invested Capital

After-tax Operating Income or sometimes called Net Operating Profit After Tax (NOPAT) is calculated using the reported Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) or Operating Income on the income statement adjusted for the tax liability.

After-tax Operating Income = Operating Income * (1 - Income Tax Rate)

There are two ways to calculate invested capital: One looks at the company's assets, and another looks at its financing from debt and equity. In this model, we are using the Asset based approach.

Invested Capital = Total Non-Current Assets + Total Current Assets - Total Current Liabilities - Cash and Equivalents
