operations or performance is often simply measured in money; the firm making
most money or the public sector unit having the least expenditure is considered to
be the best one. However, the monetary measures do not always capture all aspects
of the performance. Especially in the public sector it may be practically—or
politically—impossible to attach prices to some goods or services produced: what
is the price of a university degree, or of a medical operation saving a human life?
We may be able to figure out the short-term costs of some operations, but what is—
for instance—the price of the lost opportunity? How expensive it is not to educate,
or to lose a life? Thus performance is clearly multidimensional in its nature, and
several indicators (outputs) are required to characterize all essential aspects of
