There are several ways you can support employee development: individual coaching, workshops, courses, seminars, shadowing or mentoring, or even just increasing their responsibilities. Offering these opportunities will give employees additional skills that allow them to improve their efficiency and productivity.
When markets or governments make economic decisions about how to most efficiently convert their resources into goods and services, they are answering the economic question "What to produce?"
Answer:
a. 7.24%
b. 7.82%
Explanation:
In this question, we use the Rate formula which is shown in the spreadsheet.
The NPER represents the time period.
Given that,
Present value = $756.22
Future value = $1,000
NPER = 4 years
PMT = $0
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the answer of part A is 7.24%
For Part B
Given that,
Present value = $740
Future value = $1,000
NPER = 4 years
PMT = $0
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this, the answer of part A is 7.82%
Given the scenario, Sally's employer is still responsible for these reasons:
<em> A. Yes, because this type of incident falls under the OSH Act's General Duty Clause,
</em>
<em />
<em>B. Yes, because Larry did not follow safe work practices by rushing down the hall with the cart.</em>
The responsibility of Sally's employer does not end because the accident is not specifically addressed in the OSHA standards.
At least, the General Duty Clause of the OSH Act requires employers to provide safe work environments free from recognized present or future hazards.
Thus, Larry's action is a recognized hazard that could have been prevented from happening if wider hallways are built, for example.

Answer:
a-1. Calculate the ROI for both North and South divisions.
- ROI North Division = net profit / cost of investment = $6,000,000 / $30,000,000 = 20%
- ROI South Division = net profit / cost of investment = $30,000,000 / $320,000,000 = 9.38%
a-2. If Solomons measures performance using ROI, which division had the better performance?
- North Division, since its ROI is much higher
b-1. Calculate the EVA for both North and South divisions. (The divisions have no current liabilities.)
- North Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $30,000,000 x (20% - 8%) = $3,600,000
- South Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $320,000,000 x (9.38% - 8%) = $4,416,000
b-2. If Solomons measures performance using economic value added, which division had the better performance?
- It should choose South Division because its EVA is higher.
c. Would your evaluation change if the company’s cost of capital was 16 percent?
1. When evaluated by ROI?
- No it would not change because ROI doesn't consider cost of capital.
2. When evaluated by EVA?
- Yes it would change because South Division's EVA would be negative, while North Division's will decrease but remain positive.
North Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $30,000,000 x (20% - 16%) = $1,200,000
South Division EVA = (net investment) x (actual return on investment – percentage cost of capital) = $320,000,000 x (9.38% - 16%) = -21,184,000
