6.1 Assessing the Quality of Resources
Few resources are as uniform as cash: Every dollar bill is the same as all the others. Most resources, however, vary in important ways:
Customers may be larger or smaller, highly profitable or less so.
Products may appeal to many customers or few, and satisfy some, many, or all of their needs.
Staff may have more experience or less, and cost you high salaries or low.
A single resource may even carry several characteristics that influence how the resource stock as a whole affects other parts of the system. Individual bank customers, for example, feature different balances in their accounts, different numbers of products they use from the bank, different levels of risk of defaulting on loans, and so on. A resource attribute is a characteristic that varies between different items in a single pool of resources. These differences within each type of resource will themselves change through time. For example, if we lose our most profitable customers our operating profits will fall faster than if we lose only average customers.
