Return on equipment investment ratio:*



*The higher the number, the more profitable the equipment. An answer of 1 means that you'll get a 100% return on the equipment over five years. A 100% return over the life of the equipment is the minimum return you should expect on your investment. A return 2 (200%) to 5 (500%) should be your target. An answer less then 1 (e.g., .50) means that you need to sell more jobs or increase the price of the service in order to generate an adequte return on the equipment investment.
