Father E., ROI is calculated by dividing the current period earnings by the previous period's equity. It is a poor measure of performance, however, since it includes the effects of leverage. A better comparison is to use ROA (return on assets). Compute earnings before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization (so-called EBITDA) and divide that by the previous periods total assets. I don't think I've ever seen numbers comparable to DELL's performance. DELL is truly outstanding in this regard.
