Return on their investment
The rate of return on investment (profit divided by investments) is probably the most common measure of profitability for the small business owner. Make sure to clearly specify what items from the financial statements are being used in determining "profit" and "investment" For example, "profit" might be considered to mean net operating profit, net profit before taxes, or net profit after taxes. "Investment" could mean total assets employed or equity alone.
