Waveney DIY Centers (WDC) operates a few dozen stores in the eastern United States. The stores are popular with home
remodelers, contractors, and do-it-yourself customers. The managers at Waveney are interested in understanding what
drives costs as well as getting better cost estimates when planning new stores. The area manager for the Southeast
Region is interested in new data analysis approaches to management and offered to run a test using data from the 14
stores in the region.
The initial thoughts of the managers and the financial analysts in the region were that two primary factors drove store
costs: store area (square footage) and revenue. The following data were collected from the most recent year of operations
(revenues and costs in thousands of dollars).

Measure Maps
Rizzo Goal Inc. produces and sells hockey equipment, often custom made for online orders. The company has the following performance metrics on its balanced scorecard: days from ordered to delivered, number of shipping errors, customer retention rate, and market share. A measure map illustrates that the days from ordered to delivered and the number of shipping errors are both expected to directly affect the customer retention rate, which affects market share.
