| julescruis | thanks gina |
| godz | if you got this wrong dont show up at the exam center |
| Drzewes | GIna: NI/A is ROA ROI = NI/ Equity + total debt I am almost :) sure. |
| endlessfin1te | isn't Asset = Equity + Debt anyway? |
| johntan1979 | ROA = ROI |
| yenweic | But wouldnt ROA < ROE if u make a loss? Hence the explanation is not entirely correct? |
I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
