This page defines how to measure and report **cost per correct answer** in retrieval-augmented and reasoning pipelines. Latency and accuracy alone are insufficient. Without cost analysis, systems regress into wasteful configurations.
|
||
|
||
## Open these first
|
||
|
||
* Latency vs Accuracy trade-off: [eval\_latency\_vs\_accuracy.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/GlobalFixMap/Eval/eval_latency_vs_accuracy.md)
|
||
* Benchmark suite: [eval\_benchmarking.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/GlobalFixMap/Eval/eval_benchmarking.md)
|
||
* Observability probes: [alerting\_and\_probes.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/GlobalFixMap/Eval_Observability/alerting_and_probes.md)
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Acceptance targets
|
||
|
||
* **Cost per correct answer** ≤ 1.3× baseline
|
||
* **Cost stability variance** ≤ 15% across 3 seeds and 3 paraphrases
|
||
* **Token efficiency** ≥ 0.7 (fraction of tokens contributing to correct citation)
|
||
* **Budget alerting**: auto-flag when projected monthly spend > 110% of budget cap
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Reporting dimensions
|
||
|
||
Each evaluation run must record cost on three levels:
|
||
|
||
1. **Raw tokens**
|
||
|
||
* input, output, total per query
|
||
* broken down by retrieval, rerank, reasoning
|
||
|
||
2. **Cost per unit**
|
||
|
||
* \$/1k tokens per provider and model
|
||
* normalized into `usd_equiv`
|
||
|
||
3. **Cost per correct**
|
||
|
||
* (total spend ÷ number of correct answers)
|
||
* stratified by question bucket (short, medium, long)
|
||

}
|

```
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Diagnostic questions
|
||
|
||
* Are rerankers worth the extra spend? → check ΔS reduction vs token increase.
|
||
* Is hybrid retrieval doubling retrieval tokens with little gain?
|
||
* Does the large model add accuracy, or is a small model + WFGY equal at lower cost?
|
||
* Is citation length inflated (long snippets)? → enforce snippet contract.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Escalation and fixes
|
||
|
||
* **High cost per correct** → switch to caching, smaller model with WFGY overlay.
|
||
* **Variance >15%** → clamp paraphrases, normalize prompt headers.
|
||
* **Budget overrun** → auto-throttle evals, alert with [alerting\_and\_probes.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/GlobalFixMap/Eval_Observability/alerting_and_probes.md).

|
||
## Minimal run
|
||
|
||
1. Select 20 mixed-length questions.
|
||
2. Run baseline and candidate arms.
|
||
3. Compute cost per correct.
|
||
4. Ship only if candidate ≤ 1.3× baseline and stable across seeds.
