description | Schosser (<i>Games</i> <b>2018</b>, <i>9</i>, 26) claims to have found an alternative solution to design appropriate performance measures than the State-Contingent Relative Benefit Cost Allocation (RBCA) introduced by Ortner et al. (<i>Management Accounting Research</i> <b>2017</b>, <i>36</i>, 43–50), which he states is simpler and more powerful. However, this note reveals that the performance measures proposed by Schosser are, in fact, a specific subset of State-Contingent Robust RBCA performance measures and thus do not represent a new solution. |
