One of the indicators of the economicactivity of the enterprise is profitability of assets. The formula of this indicator reflects the complex degree of efficiency of the application of monetary, labor and material resources, including natural resources. The indicator of profitability (coefficient) is calculated by the ratio of profit to resources, flows or assets that form it. Profitability is expressed by the amount of profit received per unit of investment, as well as by the profit that each earned monetary unit carries in itself.
There are five main indicators that reflect the profitability of assets, the formula of which has some differences.

The second indicator is the profitability of investments calculated on net profit.
The third factor is profitabilitynon-current assets, the formula of which establishes the relationship between the volume of profit obtained from the use of own resources and the value of the own invested resources.
Also, the profitability index of financial long-term assets is used, which determines the effectiveness of the company's investments in the activities of other enterprises.
The use of funds invested in the work of its own enterprise in the long-term period shows the profitability of capital (permanent).
The relative efficiency index isreturn on assets. The formula of the coefficient indicates that this value is a quotient from the division of the net profit received over the period of the total volume of the enterprise's assets for the same period. This financial ratio refers to the group of profitability and shows the ability of assets to make a profit.
