The above calculations show an upward trend in the return
on total assets. However, these calculations do not include the interest payable
to the creditors of the firm in the net profits. To calculate the actual returns
on total assets, interest should be included in net profits, because assets are
financed by owners as well as creditors. The following formula is used to find
out the real return on total assets.

The dividend pay-out to ordinary
shareholders has been increasing year after year, resulting in an increase in
DPS. Higher dividends may have been declared because of stagnation in the
business, as a result of which earnings were not retained. However, the
increase in dividends also indicates that the company is generating profits
consistently.
