EXPLANATION  

In absolute terms, a segment that has a large number of assets usually produces more than a segment that has a small number of assets. But this is not certain. Therefore, companies cannot use the absolute amount of revenue from a segment to compare the potential of different segments. To measure the effectiveness of a relative segment a company can use return on investment (ROI), which calculates returns (income) as a percentage of assets used (investment). Here is the formula for ROI:

ROI =  Segment Income /Investment Base

For example, a segment that generates $5 million with an investment of $50 million has a ROI of 10% ($5 million / $50 million). Return on investment always reported as a percentage. Return on investment means how much income we make for each investment dollar we spend. In the example above ROI is 10%, this means the company makes 10 cents for every $1 investment.  

By applying return on investment (ROI) it is expected that a manager is able to determine whether the segment is profitable or detrimental to the company. Because managers are responsible for income, financing, and investment-related to a segment/project. The manager will release investment opportunities that can provide more than enough ROI for the company as a whole, but which will provide lower ROI than the ROI that is already in the center, which will reduce the overall ROI of the center.
