It is practical but not the only way to measure performance. It's the manager's job to control costs, so their decisions matter unless the situation is totally out of their hands. For instance the water rate hike in 2006. Rates doubled! So the manager's decisions relative to cost go hand in hand. Does the manager make good cost decisions as related to their role? Is the situation unforeseenable or uncontrollable? IE Katrina?

Hi. controllable costs of course...
because, the non-controllable costs are your fixed costs like your rent, your payroll, company cars, etc..etc... If a manager's performance was only based on the non-controllable costs there would be no point employing one!
Hi Hi ..had to think about that one!

A large part of any manager's job is to control expenses...non-controllable expenses include things like royalty expenses, rent, depreciation of equipment...these cannot be controlled by a manager, but you can compensate for some of them by tightening up on the controllables...labor, utility usage, maintenance and repair, waste....etc.
