into Business and U.S. Consumer. The Americas Business segment includes sales to corporate, government, healthcare and education customers while the
U.S. Consumer segment includes sales primarily to individual consumers. The European region, which is based in Bracknell, England, covers Europe, the
Middle East, and Africa. The Asia Pacific-Japan region covers the Pacific Rim, including Australia and New Zealand, and is based in Singapore.
The accounting policies of Dell's reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Dell allocates
resources to and evaluates the performance of its segments based on operating income. Corporate expenses are included and special charges are excluded
from Dell's measure of segment operating income for management reporting purposes. The asset totals disclosed by geography are directly managed by those
regions and include accounts receivable, inventory, certain fixed assets, and certain other assets. Assets are not allocated specifically to the Business and
U.S. Consumer segments within the Americas. Corporate assets primarily include cash and cash equivalents, investments, deferred tax assets, and other assets.
