The main purpose as well as the cause of the failure of performance appraisal process is as described below-
Explanation:
Appraisal refers to the process (mostly formal) to evaluate the productivity of the manpower of an organisation. It serves for administrative as well as developmental purpose.
Performance appraisal serves three important purpose-
- Providing adequate feedback to employees based on his/her performance.
- It can help in modifying employee behaviour and thus contributing to an effective workspace environment.
- Providing qualitative parameters to higher-order authority through which they can adjudge their subordinates.
However, appraisals occasionally fail in their motive due to following reasons-
- Appraisals are prone to biases prevailing in the work environment. Moreover, the neutrality of the rating authority is also often under the scanner.
- The appraisals are often inflicted by sampling error. The conclusion of few cannot be generalised on all.
- Appraisals don’t take into account the variability of the employee's performance, Rather it relies on the end performance and the start.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that when allocating funds, the firm should probably assign the highest cost of capital to division Z because it is most likely the riskiest of the three divisions. This is because Division Z focuses on research and development which means that they might not actually discover or create something that can bring value to the company and is therefore highly risky.
Answer:
$17.27
Explanation:
The stock intrinsic value is calculated using dividend discounted model (DDM). The DDM is stated as below:
Stock intrinsic value = [This year dividend x (1 + Dividend growth)]/[Equity cost of capital - Dividend growth]
= [1.9 x (1 + 0%)]/[11% - 0%] = $17.27
So vlaue of NoGrowth's stock is estimated at $17.27
Answer:
The stock price would be higher by $7.37
Explanation:
Free cash flow to equity = 195 million with a growth rate of 2% in perpetuity
Value of equity = Free cash flow to equity ÷ (Ce -g) = 195 million ÷ (13% - 2%)
= 190 ÷ 0.11 = $1,772,727,272.73 = $1,773 million
If growth rate is 3%, value of equity = 195 ÷ (13%-3%) = 195 ÷ 0.1 = $1,950 million
a. Value of stock = (1,773 + 15) million ÷ 22 = $81.27
b. Value of stock with 3% = 1,950 ÷ 22 = $88.64
Thus stock price would be higher by = b-a = $7.37
Answer: 1. STATEMENT 1
2. It has achieved efficiency.
Explanation:
1. The students who will pay for them at that price will receive the vaccines if the university health center sell them for this price. In this case the theory of free market comes into play, those who have the money will get the resources.
2. The free market theory helps to establish efficiency. If the resources were to be distributed for free the demand will exceed supply resulting in inefficient use of resources.
