In the DuPont analysis, ROE is decomposed into which three components?
- A Net profit margin, asset turnover and equity multiplier
- B Revenue, costs and taxes

Answer
Net profit margin, asset turnover and equity multiplier
DuPont shows whether ROE is driven by profitability, efficiency or leverage, which matters because leverage-driven ROE carries more risk.
