In Correlation analysis the result shows that ROCE has a positive relationship with WTO and negative relationship with ITO and CR. In Regression Analysis, there is no significant impact of ITO, CR, and WTO on ROCE because p-value is more than 0.05, which mean null hypothesis is accepted. In addition, the adjusted r square (r 2 ) shows that the above-mentioned independent variables affect the dependent variable by 38 percent (38%).
