The correct answer is A. Net profit and capital employed.

Return on investment (ROI) is a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency or profitability of an investment or compare the efficiency of a number of different investments. ROI tries to directly measure the amount of return on a particular investment, relative to the investment’s cost. To calculate ROI, the benefit (or return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investment. The result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio.

Net profit is the total revenue of a company minus all of its expenses. Capital employed is the total amount of money that a company has invested in its assets.

ROI is a useful tool for comparing the profitability of different investments. It can also be used to track the performance of an investment over time. A high ROI indicates that an investment is profitable, while a low ROI indicates that an investment is not profitable.
