La Rentabilidad: en búsqueda de información significativa

Abstract

One of the various concerns of businessmen is to know what profitability they obtain from their investments made in companies, which they share with their executives, employees and workers. Each group in search of the benefits that correspond to them.

However, some of them do not realize that they may have a very good flow of funds and be destroying the value of their company. Others overlook that for the results they obtain, they make high investments in assets, that is, outside the average of their own sector.

It is a natural position for shareholders to establish that the main objective of a company is the profitability of its invested capital. And if they do not obtain satisfactory results in this regard, they urge their managers to focus on more favorable activities.

The question is. Have the researchers of this task generated indicators that allow them to see how they are doing? Have they been provided with models that allow them to know or has real profitability been generated? Or do the measures that exist do not meet that objective, that is, measure profitability significantly.

Given the previous questions, we have taken on the task of gathering some of the most outstanding efforts published on the subject.
