I remember a number of years ago when Honeywell announced a target return on assets that would have marked a significant improvement. However, the company then proceeded to indulge in an orgy of restructuring charges and asset write offs to propel itself to this target. I remember thinking hey, at this rate, these bozos will have an infinite return, having written off every asset!
