The given definition matches with the concept of "return on investment" (ROI). ROI is a measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of several different investments. It is calculated by dividing the net profit generated by an investment by the initial cost of the investment. Therefore, option C is the best choice.

Option A (return on security) does not match the given definition and is not a commonly used financial term. Option B (equity distribution) is not relevant to the given definition as it refers to the distribution of ownership in a company. Option D (maturity ratio) is also irrelevant to the given definition as it is generally used in the context of analyzing debt repayments.
