Synopsis

The Measurement of Productivity: A Primer With Examples for Small Businesses or Corporate Divisions offers a practical guide to measuring productivity in real-world settings. It presents basic measures, how to track inputs and outputs, and how to use index-based methods to spot trends over time. The book includes practical guidance, a fictional example, and straightforward steps that can be adapted to many industries.

The discussion covers how to build usable productivity indices, how to handle inputs like labor and capital, and how to interpret results in light of environmental factors. It explains the difference between total and partial productivity measures and shows how to compare performance across years while accounting for inflation and changes in technology. A practical example demonstrates how a small construction firm tracks productivity with real-world data.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
