Unreferenced date February 2007 Return of capital ROC refers to payments back to capital owners shareholders, partners, unitholders that exceed the growth net income taxable income of a business. It should not be confused with return on capital which measures a rate of return . The ROC effectively shrinks the firm s equity in the same way that all distributions do. It is a transfer of value from the company to the owner. In an efficient market, the stock s price will fall by an amount equal to the distribution. Most public companies pay out only a percentage of their income as dividends. In some industries it is common to pay ROC. Real Estate Investment Trusts REITs commonly make distributions equal to the sum of their income and the depreciation capital cost allowance allowed for in the calculation of that income. The business has the cash to make the distribution because depreciation is a non cash charge. Oil and gas royalty trust s also make distributions that include ROC equal to the drawdown in the quantity of their reserves. Again, the cash to find the O&G was spent previously, and current operations are generating excess cash.

Unreferenced date August 2008 The price return is the rate of return on an investment portfolio, where the return measure takes into account only the capital appreciation of the portfolio, while the income generated by the assets in the portfolio, in the form of interest and dividend s, is ignored. This contrasts with the total return , which does take into account the income generated in the portfolio. Often, when the return of a stock market index is quoted in the press, the quoted returns concern price returns, rather than the total returns. Examples are the S&P 500 and the MSCI EAFE , which are typically quoted in terms of price return. This is clearly misleading, since, economically speaking, it is the total return that is the only thing that matters. Whether that return is generated in the form of cash income or in capital appreciation is irrelevant as long as one can always liquidate the investment to realise the capital appreciation into cash. For the same reason, it is inappropriate to evaluate the skill of a portfolio manager by comparing the total return on the portfolio to the price return of an index. After all, the total return on the index will always exceed the price return on the same index, so the portfolio manager could simply outperform the price return of the index by investing in the index. Even so, the use of price indices is still quite common in the investment industry. Category Investment investment stub ... more details

Unreferenced date July 2007 The absolute return or simply return is a measure of the gain or loss on an investment portfolio expressed as a percentage of invested capital. The adjective absolute is used to stress the distinction with the relative return measures often used by long only equity fund s. Absolute return strategies aim to produce a positive absolute return regardless of the directions of financial markets. They typically achieve this by investing the portfolio s assets in cash or other low volatility investments and then taking hedge finance hedged long finance long and short finance short positions in portfolios of securities that when combined are expected to have modest exposures to market returns. The resulting portfolio should have low correlation with financial market performance. Of course whether such portfolio actually delivers a positive absolute return depends on the skill of the portfolio manager in selecting profitable long and short positions.

As with many financial ratio s, ROE is best used to compare companies in the same industry. High ROE yields no immediate benefit. Since stock prices are most strongly determined by earnings per share EPS , you will be paying twice as much in Price Book terms for a 20 ROE company as for a 10 ROE company. The benefit comes from the earnings reinvested in the company at a high ROE rate, which in turn gives the company a high growth rate. The benefit can also come as a dividend on common shares or as a combination of dividends and reinvestment in the company. ROE is presumably irrelevant if the earnings are not reinvested.
