Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Return on Investment (ROI) is the proportion of operating assets that an investment center earned as as net operating income.

ROI is measure of the returned earned by a division relative to the amount invested in the assets used to generate the return.

It is calculated as follows

ROI = operating income/operating assets × 100

To evaluate a division, the division's ROI is compared to the budgeted ROI of the company. An actual ROI that exceeds the budgeted is considered a good performance and vice versa
