$\$ 36.70+12 \%(\$ 613.40-\$ 509)=\$ 36.70+12 \% \text { of } \$ 104.40=\$ 36.70+\$ 12.53=\$ 49.23$

Which goal is an example of a measurable goal?

Anni [7]

Sales Target

Explanation:

A sales target is an example of a measurable goal and it is probably the most common, and perhaps the most important, measurable goal in a firm.

It simply consists in determining a minimum number of goods or services to be sold, measured in either physical or monetary terms, in order to keep the firm afloat and profitable.

For example, a firm that sells cars can determine that for the month of january it must sell at least 250 cars in order to stay in business. If the goal is not reached, the sustainability of the firm can be endangered.
