ROI Formula:
ROI=(Total Profit / Total Investment)×100
Projected Example:
Selling Price per Sneaker: CAD 130
Total Cost (Production + Shipping + Marketing per unit): CAD 35 (avg)
Profit per Unit: CAD 95
Units Sold in Year 1 (conservative estimate): 1,000
Year 1 Total Revenue: 1,000 × 130 = CAD 130,000
Year 1 Total Cost: 1,000 × 35 = CAD 35,000 + CAD 25,000 (marketing) = CAD 60,000
ROI =(gain from Investment - Cost of investment / cost of investment)*100
ROI = (130,000 - 60,000)/(60,000)*100 = 116.6%
Interpretation:
An ROI of 116.6% in the first year suggests that Sanjo would more than double its initial investment, making this a financially promising move—especially for a small-scale market test.
