comparability analysis

Definition

Side by side examination of two or more alternatives, processes, products, qualifications, sets of data, systems, etc., to determine if they have enough common-ground, equivalence, or similarities to permit a meaningful comparative analysis. For example, financial data of two firms from very different industries may be comparable if they use similar performance measures, follow similar accounting methods, policies, and procedures, and disclose their financial information to the similar extent. A very high degree of comparability may indicate uniformity.
