Depreciation in ROI measurement refers to the reduction in the value of an asset over time due to wear and tear, obsolescence, or age. In calculating ROI, depreciation is accounted for as an expense, which reduces the net income generated by the asset. This adjustment helps provide a more accurate picture of the investment's profitability, reflecting the true economic benefit after considering the asset's diminishing value. Properly factoring in depreciation ensures that ROI calculations are aligned with the actual performance and cost of the investment.
