The return on assets calculator is created to help you determine if you are wisely using the assets that are controlled by your business. The calculation is made in several steps. The first step is to determine your average inventory for the past year. Enter in the ending inventory for each of the past 12 months. The second step is to total your operating expenses for a 12 month period. Do that in the "Annual Operating Expenses" section. The third section is where you input the amount of assets at year end.

The first item for you as manager and owner of a business, you must inderstand financial information. You cannot leave it to an accountant. The second item is you have to invest in educating your staff regarding their responsibilities within your business.
Most every small business has inventory. It may be inventory used as a part of your services. It may be inventory for items used in your business. The article of the month shares ideas of how you should control the inventory. This is important because you do not want to run out of the necessary inventory, and you do not want too much of your money sitting in more inventory than you need.
You cannot beat your competition unless you know what they are doing. The February book of the month is, The Everything Store, written by Brad Stone and Jeff Bezos.
