Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a growing literature, the relationship between the structure of executive compensation and firm performance is not fully understood. Furthermore, little work has been done on the link between Economic Value Added (EVA) as a measure of firm performance and the form of executive compensation. An examination of the compensation structure and economic value added of 209 companies in 1995 - 1998 provides evidence supporting incentive compensation. Economic Value Added is found to be positively and significantly related to incentive based compensation. Cash based remuneration, was found to be unrelated to EVA performance.

Download or read book Executive Compensation and Shareholder Value written by Jennifer Carpenter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Executive compensation has gained widespread public attention in recent years, with the pay of top U.S. executives reaching unprecedented levels compared either with past levels, with the remuneration of top executives in other countries, or with the wages and salaries of typical employees. The extraordinary levels of executive compensation have been achieved at a time when U.S. public companies have realized substantial gains in stock market value. Many have cited this as evidence that U.S. executive compensation works well, rewarding managers who make difficult decisions that lead to higher shareholder values, while others have argued that the overly generous salaries and benefits bear little relation to company performance. Recent conceptual and empirical research permits for the first time a truly rigorous debate on these and related issues, which is the subject of this volume.
Download or read book Calculate Top Management Performance written by Reda Sabry and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the problems of evaluating CEO output is based on the industry group, or we can say, does he follow short or long policy? It is difficult to judge how well a CEO is doing. Nearly all firms are moving heavier reliance on bonuses. Still we need to connect the compensation by the company performance. In this research, I will start with EVA "Economic Value Added" as one of the best way to evaluate the corporate performance. What I argue is using EVA for CEO's evaluation; simply I mean that company output is not CEO output. Starting with economic value added 'EVA'; I will calculate the performance of the top management, which I will name it NEVA "Net Economic Value Added."
Download or read book Best Practice EVA written by Bennett Stewart and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best-Practice EVA tells the new EVA story from the ground up. Stewart covers EVA essentials—the classic economic profit version of EVA—in the first three chapters of the book. He shows readers how simple and intuitive EVA really is, how it is defined, and why it is better than all other measures of corporate profit. You discover how it naturally guides managers into making all the right decisions—the ones that will truly maximize value. You see how to use it in profit-sharing bonus plans that create the powerful incentives of an owner. Later, Stewart introduces new ratios that make EVA much more powerful and much easier to use than ever before. The pinnacle of the new ratio framework is EVA Momentum, calculated by taking the change in EVA versus the prior period, and dividing by the revenues in the prior period. It measures the growth rate in EVA, scaled to the sales size of the business. It is the only corporate performance ratio where bigger always is better, because it gets bigger when EVA does, which means it should be every company's most important financial goal, the one ratio metric that everyone aims to maximize as the key measure of corporate success. Stewart then walks through the nuts and bolts of Best-Practice EVA, kicking off with an in-depth look at EVA Margin, or EVA as a percent of sales. It’s a key productivity metric, and Stewart’s candidate to replace ROI. The last link in the Best-Practice program is PRVit—the EVA market score report. Stewart shows how to read and interpret the report, how the score is determined, and why investors are turning to it to screen and rate stocks. He also shows why it is finding a home with CFOs and IR directors who want insights into how the market is pricing their stock. The book concludes with battle-tested tips from the firing line, practical suggestions for how you can test drive and adopt Best-Practice EVA at your company.

Download or read book Economic Value Added written by Brett Kimball and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shareholders rely on accounting figures that do not indicate true performance and are known to be easily manipulated. Manager incentives, which are focused on these figures, must be changed in order to reward managers for honest corporate governance. The pursuit of corporate governance requires adjustments to internal reports and valuation methods. Economic Value Added (EV A) is a method that truly measures economic value and requires managers to return the cost of capital to lenders and shareholders. Some companies that have not required a minimum return from investment projects have gotten themselves into financial ruin arid even turned to corrupt behavior. Cases of cOl1uption involving Enron and Tyco will be analyzed with a focus on the reasons of corruption. Incentive plans utilizing EVA valuation standards will be discussed as solutions. EVA implementation will be proven to serve as a more accurate method of valuing a company's worth and manager performance. This will serve to deter dishonest practices and encourage managers for making decisions in the best interest of shareholders.
