Cost-benefit principle would state that you would only take an action if the benefit outweighs the cost.
For example: It may cost me $5 to drive to work, but I make $50 for showing up, I would go because the benefit I get outweighs the cost and I am better off going than staying at home.
Answer:

Explanation:
We want to know the value of
when 

From here, we can find the factors of the quadratic equation, we need two numbers that multiplied give -400 and added -30. Since they are factors of 400, we can choose -20x20 or -40x10. When adding -20 and 20 the result is zero, but the sum of -40 and 10 is -30. Then:

The solutions of the quadratic equation are
and
:

Since
is a positive integer:

The loss on the disposal of the car is $-16,200.
The first step is to determine the total depreciation on the car.
Depreciation expense = percentage depreciation x cost of the asset
$37,000 x 0.1 = $3700
The second step is to determine the book value of the car = cost of the car - depreciation
$37,000 - $3700 = $33,300.
The book value is greater than the selling price of the car, so there was a loss on the sale. The third step is to determine the gain on the sale.
Loss = $17,100 - $33,300 = $-16,200

The answer is economic value added measure of divisional performance.
Performance appraisals tend to impact bonuses or pay raise that an individual will receive, and thus the best way to measure this would it on a division-level by evaluating the economic value that the division manages to give to the company. This would minimize short-term bias because it would look at the division’s performance for the whole year.
