ISO 27001 measurement

I was considering the measurement and effectiveness bit of the ISO 27001:2013 standard and i am having problems wrapping my head around it. Kindly advice on the best way to prepare a document for the external auditors on what needs to be measured and how to measure it or if possible a sample template i can work with.

Basically you need to measure the achievement of the objectives of security, and the effectiveness of the security controls. To do this, you need metrics, and you can define each one with these fields: Name of the metrics, description, calculation formula, threshold value, objective value, measuring frequency, source, and responsible for the manage of the metric.
