standard

standard
Fin
a benchmark measurement of resource usage, set in defined conditions.
     Standards can be set on the following bases: on an ex ante estimate of expected performance; on an ex post estimate of attainable performance; on a prior period level of performance by the same organization; on the level of performance achieved by comparable organizations; and on the level of performance required to meet organizational objectives.
     Standards may also be set at attainable levels which assume efficient levels of operation, but which include allowances for normal loss, waste, and machine downtime, or at ideal levels, which make no allowance for the above losses, and are only attainable under the most favorable conditions.
