...Assignment (D2) Briefing Paper on the Adequacy of Accounting Ratios as a means of Monitoring the State of WFT Ltd. Prepared by Nicola McKenzie Probability Ratio Return on Capital Employed - WFT Ltd = 43.94% The strengths of this is; it is easy to interpret results in percentages; for example, being told that a project has a four year payback would not immediately convey whether that was good or bad; but being told that a project is expected to produce a 35% return on capital would appear obviously desirable.

This will help motivate staff as they have a target set for them to achieve, this means to keep their job they will work more harder, which means the quality of production will increase. One other strength is it evaluates the project on the basis of its profitability; which shows whether the business should put more money in or less money.

A limitation to the company would be The Timing Problem (The business may have spent a lot on R&D or NPD – Otherwise may be higher.). This doesn’t help the company because for example, if the company was to make £1m profit from the start, this is really good it shows the business is off to...
