We can apply the Spot Slope annotation to a ramp but it isn't very useful because, while Revit does acknowledge the ramp element, when you attempt to tag it you see [no slope] (image using 2014).
Alfredo replied to my previous post with a tip in his comment:
In this image I've dragged a slope annotation from a floor element over to a ramp element and it recognizes the ramp's slope!
Definitely quirky and subtle but at least it is possible after all. A word of caution, it will probably be necessary to check the slope value before printing, for example if Revit regenerates information because the ramp is altered. The tag could could start to report [no slope] again. Fwiw, in my casual testing so far it hasn't broken the slope value even after altering a ramp's parameters. Your mileage may vary...

- If you first place the spot slope tool on a floor and then move the slope annotation to a ramp, it works!
