A and C are profit seeking so profitability is important. B is not profit-seeking so cannot use profit measures. A local authority would use measures like cost/tonne to remove rubbish. It would depend on the aims of the NGO. So if it was a body trying to conserve the environment it would have to invent something like hectares returned to the wild/$.
