Editing Growth–share matrix (section)

==Other uses==
The initial intent of the growth–share matrix was to evaluate business units, but the same evaluation can be made for [[product line]]s or any other cash-generating entities.  This should only be attempted for real lines that have a sufficient history to allow some prediction; if the corporation has made only a few products and called them a product line, the [[sample variance]] will be too high for this sort of analysis to be meaningful.
