| Tiivistelmä: | Measuring performance in a multiproduct firm is difficult because of the complex nature of the firm's output. The authors present an approach to measuring performance, called "operating efficiency", which is the ratio of aggregate output to aggregate resource use. The authors describe how to calculate operating efficiency for a multiproduct organization and demonstrate how it can be used to understand why performance varies across plants and/or through time. Their application of operating efficiency to the U.S. Postal Service is discussed along with the reactions of potential users. |
