Definition of EBIT Return on Assets
- EBIT return on asset measures the firm’s earnings before interest and tax with respect to the firm’s total asset.
- The main focus on this ratio is the income and the total asset.
- The reason EBIT is used and not net income is because EBIT focuses only on operating cash flows.
What is the Formula for EBIT Return on Assets?
- EBIT return on assets is calculated by dividing EBIT by average total assets.
EBIT return on assets = EBIT/ Average total asset
- EBIT is calculated by subtracting COGS and operating expenses from the revenue.
EBIT = Revenue − COGS − Operating expenses

- EBIT = $500,000 – $350,00 – $90,000 = $60,000
- EBIT return on assets = $60,000 / $120,000 = 50%
