| Abstract: | This exploratory field study tests the relative and incremental information content of two non-financial performance measures compared to financial performance measures for future financial performance. The data is from the contracts of the managers of 27 responsibility centers of a large Dutch service firm. The analysis is based on three years monthly observation. It is found, among others, that in the research context the two non-financial measures absence frequency and on-time delivery do not have more relative information content than lagged financial measures. |
