Other Assessment Methods Here Are Two Additional Ways You Can Assess An Organization's Financial Health: Economic Value Added
Here are two additional ways you can assess an organization’s financial health:
Economic value added
Productivity measures.
Economic value added:
Economic value added (EVA) was introduced as a way to induce employees to think like shareholders
and owners. It’s the profit left over after the company has met the cost of capital—that is, after it pays
wages to employees, interest to lenders, and a return to shareholders. A positive EVA amount shows that
the company is in fact producing an economic profit.
Productivity measures:
Productivity measures include sales per employee and net income per employee. These measures link
revenue and profit generation information to workforce data. In so doing, they help you assess
employees' effectiveness in producing sales and income. Some analysts classify these measures as
operating ratios.
