Return on Investment
April, 2002
SOFTWARE
Software can perform redundant tasks such as bookkeeping and inventory
tasks, reducing the number of employees required.
Cost
P 200,000 – P 700,000 (for a small to medium sized enterprise)
Benefit
Reduce 3 manpower positions (bookkeeper, AP clerk, Inventory clerk)
– P 500,000 / year
Better record keeping, less “stealing” risk
– P 100,000 / year
Better inventory and cash flow management – P 100,000 / year
Total cost saving – P 700,000 / year ($ 14,000 USD)
ROI
Return on investment can be realized within the first year or less.
Succeeding years will yield cost savings of P 700,000 / year (based on
above assumptions).

WEB
SITE
Initial cost of a Web site (design fee) may cost P 5,000 – P
100,000 depending on requirement. The maintenance fee per year may cost
P 2,000 – P 20,000.
Business (small to medium size)
Initial cost of Web site: P 10,000
Yearly cost: P 2,000
With such small investment of P 12,000 for the first year, it is not
hard to get a good ROI on the investment. If a company makes a net
income of P 12,000 per item sold, ROI
would be realized by just having one person buy one product through the
Web site.
