Carrot Colors Carrots as we know them now are orange but the original carrot was a small, thin, bitter root that was nowhere near the revered vegetable it is today.

Project Return on Investment (ROI) An indicator used to measure the financial savings/gain (or loss) of a project in relation to its cost. Typically, it is used in determining whether a project will yield positive financial benefits, and in turn giving approval to proceed. The formula for a Project ROI = ((projectâs financial gain or loss â projectâs cost) / projectâs cost) X 100.
Return on investment (ROI) is a financial ratio intended to measure the benefit obtained from an investment. Time is usually of the essence in this measurement because it takes time for an investment to realize a benefit. An ROI calculation can be illustrated by the purchase and subsequent sale of a house.f that income is factored in, the net benefit will be $64,000 rather than $40,000, and the ROI will be 64 percent. The general rule to keep in mind is that ROI is the ratio produced when all gains from a transaction, less the costs associated with that transaction, are divided by the initial investment.
