2024 Calculations

2 Interest and debt expense, after tax = Interest and debt expense × (1 – EITR)
= 2,725 × (1 – 3.10%)
= 2,641

3 EBIT(1 – EITR) = Net loss attributable to Boeing Shareholders + Interest and debt expense, after tax
= -11,817 + 2,641
= -9,176

4 RR = [EBIT(1 – EITR) – Interest expense (after tax) and dividends] ÷ EBIT(1 – EITR)
= [-9,1762,713] ÷ -9,176
=

5 ROIC = 100 × EBIT(1 – EITR) ÷ Total capital
= 100 × -9,176 ÷ 49,956
= -18.37%
