Productivity: Measurement and Control
Productivity is concerned with producing output
efficiently, and it specifically addresses the relationship of output and the inputs used to produce
the outputs.

Productive EfficiencyTotal productive efficiency is the point at which two conditions are satisfied:
(1) For any mix of inputs that will produce a given output, no more of any one input is used than necessary to produce the output.
(2) Given the mixes that satisfy the first condition, the least costly mix is chosen.

Technical Efficiency is the condition where no more of any one input is used than necessary to produce a given output.
Technical efficiency improvement is when less inputs are used to produce the same output or more output are produced using the same input.

can be actual or prospective
is forward looking
serves as input for strategic decision making

Partial Productivity Measurement: Measuring productivity for one input at a time.
Partial Measure = Output/Input
Operational Productivity Measure: Partial measure where both input and output are expressed in physical terms.
Financial Productivity Measure: Partial measure where both input and output are expressed in dollars.

Profit-Linkage Rule: For the current period, calculate the cost of the inputs that would have been used in the absence of any productivity change, and compare this
cost with the cost of the inputs actually used. The difference in costs is the amount by which profits
changed because of productivity changes.
To compute the inputs that would have been used (PQ), use the following formula:
PQ = Current-period Output/Base-period productivity ratio

PQ (materials) = 250,000/0.200 = 1,250,000 lbs.

Profit-linked effect = Total PQ cost – Total current cost
= $5,312,500 – $5,300,000
= $12,500 increase in profits
The net effect of the process change was favorable. Profits increased $12,500
because of productivity changes.

Quality and ProductivityQuality and ProductivityQuality and ProductivityQuality and Productivity
Improving quality may improve productivity. If rework is
reduced by producing fewer defective units, then less labor and few materials are used to
produce the same output. Reducing the number of defective units improves quality; reducing
the amount of inputs used to improve productivity.
