Unreferenced date February 2007 Return of capital ROC refers to payments back to capital owners shareholders, partners, unitholders that exceed the growth net income taxable income of a business. It should not be confused with return on capital which measures a rate of return . The ROC effectively shrinks the firm s equity in the same way that all distributions do. It is a transfer of value from the company to the owner. In an efficient market, the stock s price will fall by an amount equal to the distribution. Most public companies pay out only a percentage of their income as dividends. In some industries it is common to pay ROC. Real Estate Investment Trusts REITs commonly make distributions equal to the sum of their income and the depreciation capital cost allowance allowed for in the calculation of that income. The business has the cash to make the distribution because depreciation is a non cash charge. Oil and gas royalty trust s also make distributions that include ROC equal to the drawdown in the quantity of their reserves.

Unreferenced date August 2008 The price return is the rate of return on an investment portfolio, where the return measure takes into account only the capital appreciation of the portfolio, while the income generated by the assets in the portfolio, in the form of interest and dividend s, is ignored. This contrasts with the total return , which does take into account the income generated in the portfolio. Often, when the return of a stock market index is quoted in the press, the quoted returns concern price returns, rather than the total returns. Examples are the S&P 500 and the MSCI EAFE , which are typically quoted in terms of price return. This is clearly misleading, since, economically speaking, it is the total return that is the only thing that matters. Whether that return is generated in the form of cash income or in capital appreciation is irrelevant as long as one can always liquidate the investment to realise the capital appreciation into cash. For the same reason, it is inappropriate to evaluate the skill of a portfolio manager by comparing the total return on the portfolio to the price return of an index. After all, the total return on the index will always exceed the price return on the same index, so the portfolio manager could simply outperform the price return of the index by investing in the index. Even so, the use of price indices is still quite common in the investment industry. Category Investment investment stub ... more details
notability date July 2008 unreferenced date July 2008 The total return on a portfolio of investments takes into account not only the capital appreciation on the portfolio, but also the income received on the portfolio. The income typically consists of interest , dividend s, and securities lending fees. This contrasts with the price return , which takes into account only the capital gain on an investment. Stock and bond funds provide annual Total Return values summarizing the last ten years of operation. Total Return assumes that dividends are reinvested in the funds. A reasonably accurate equation for the percent Total Return in a year of any security is the sum of the percent gain or loss, a negative percent over the year in the security value, plus the annual dividend yield expressed as a percent 100 annual dividends divided by the security price at the beginning of the year .
