contained Explanation: "costs are contained" Cost Control Techniques One of the most effective means to produce short-term profits is to reduce costs and contain waste. While this approach is not feasible on a recurring basis, it is very important for companies to identify where costs are high and to monitor how costs are contained throughout the year. Cost control strategies can be positive programs that allow employees to offer suggestions, receive feedback for good performance, and build team spirit within each department. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 mins (2005-05-17 06:38:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.ramcpa.com/Consulting_Services.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 mins (2005-05-17 06:43:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The associated composite noun is: cost containment (some 2 million hits on Google). |
