Could you explain how TA is a performance measurement tool rather than a decision making tool?
Thank you sir

Throughput accounting is actually a decision making tool.
However it is primarily a performance measurement tool because the TPAR is a measure as to what extent each product is ‘covering’ the fixed costs, and it is this measure that is used to help make decisions.
