“I write down the three measurements which Lou and I agreed are central to knowing if the company is making money: net profit, ROI and cash flow.”
Eliyahu M. Goldratt

“So this is the goal: To make money by increasing net profit, while simultaneously increasing return on investment, and simultaneously increasing cash flow.”
Eliyahu M. Goldratt, The Goal

“While they go get the others, I figure out the details. The system I’ve set up is intended to "process’’ matches. It does this by moving a quantity of match sticks out of their box, and through each of the bowls in succession. The dice determine how many matches can be moved from one bowl to the next.

Each has exactly the same capacity as the others, but its actual yield will fluctuate somewhat.”
