Operating leverage is highest in companies that got fixed operating cost for variable operating cost. It tells investor about the company’s situation and the risk profile of the company. It is evaluated when a company has fixed costs that are apart from the sales volume. When company has fixed cost then the percentage change in profits due to changes in sales volume is larger than the percentage change in sales. The calculation of this is named as degree of operating leverage (or DOL) that gives the extent to that operating profits change as sales volume changes.

DOL (or Degree of operating leverage) = percentage change in income / percentage change in sale.
