Example Calculation
This example shows how the ROI Calculator works using sample figures.
Example
Investment Cost: £5,000
Total Return: £6,500
Profit: £1,500
ROI: 30%
Calculation Formula
Profit = Total Return − Investment Cost
£6,500 − £5,000 = £1,500
ROI = (Profit ÷ Investment Cost) × 100
(£1,500 ÷ £5,000) × 100 = 30%
