Abstract
This paper considers the objective function of the Additive (Pareto-Ko opmans) Data Envelopment Analysis model and finds a flaw which is indu ced by the manner in which units invariance is sought. This flaw is re ctified, in the spirit of the original proposal, but the consequence i s a non-linear objective function for the efficiency calculations. How ever, the resulting non-linear programming problems solve readily with existing NLP software.
