Return on Assets (ROA) = Net Profit Margin x Asset Turnover
• The ratio shows how much profit the company’s assets generate
• Accuracy metrics – number of times an activity was done correctly to the total
number of times

Supplier Performance Index = (Material Cost + Nonconformance Cost) / Material
Cost
• Index of 1.10 means that prices are actually 10% higher than agreed when all
problems are accounted for

output of production compared to actual input of resources
• higher inventory turnover result from increasing sales and/or decreasing average
inventory
• Inventory velocity – the speed with which inventory passes through a company or
supply chain at a given point in time as measured by inventory turnover
