PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT




            Why RI is superior to ROI (cont)








            • Suboptimal decisions are discouraged as managers


                will invest in projects that yield a return higher than

                the cost of capital.



            • Contribution by divisions to group profit is clearly


                measured.



            • Comparability is enhanced as different required


                rates of return may be used to reflect different risk


                profiles of the divisions.
