SOME ASPECTS REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE INDICATORS USED IN THE MANAGEMENT OF A COMPANY

To assess the economic performance of an enterprise four indicators are commonly used: return on investment, residual income, economic value added and profitability of sales. The performance analysis is a constituent of any managerial control system. Strategic planning and control decisions require information on how different subunits of the enterprise worked. To be efficient, performance indicators and remuneration have to motivate the managers and the employees from all enterprise levels and to make sustained efforts to implement strategies and to attain business objectives.performance, profitability, economic value added, investments

Profitability and Risk – Components of the Financial Management

In the context of market economy, with priority the economic category of profitableness has to be addressed with the category of risk. The investors are expecting a gain that depends on the degree of risk they are assuming.

The purpose of this paper is to provide managers andownership information about the main categories of risks that can occur in a company

The Modern Performance Indicators – Important Instruments in the Financial Management of the Companies

The information about the performances of an institution is needed in order to assess potential changes of the economic resources which the entity will be able to control in the future, to anticipate the ability to generate cash flows with the present resources, to formulate judgments about how efficiently it can engage and use new resources. To assess the economic performance of an enterprise four indicators are commonly used: return on investment, residual income, economic value added and profitability of sales. The performance analysis is a constituent of any managerial control system. Strategic planning and control decisions require information on how different subunits of the enterprise worked. To be efficient, performance indicators and remuneration have to motivate the managers and the employees from all enterprise levels to make sustained efforts to implement strategies and to attain business objectives. Taking into account the practices of companies one can observe that companies use varied financial indicators for performance evaluation.performance, profitability, value added, residual income, financial management

VALUE AT RISK - CORPORATE RISK MEASUREMENT

The notion of "risk" is used in a number of sciences. The Faculty of Law studies the risk depending on its legality. The Accident Theory applies this term to describe the damage and the disasters. One can find studies on the risks in the works of psychology, philosophy, medicine and within each of these areas the study of the risk is based on the given science subject and, of course, on their methods and approaches. Such a variety of risk study is explained by the diversity of this phenomenon. Under the market economy conditions, the risk is an essential component of any economic agent management policy, of the approach developed by this one, a strategy that depends almost entirely on individual ability and capacity to anticipate his evolution and to exploit his opportunities, assuming a so-called \"risk of business failure.\" There are several ways to measure the risks in projects, one of the most used methods to measure this being the Value at Risk(VaR). Value at Risk (VaR) was made famous by JP Morgan in the mid 1990s, by introducing the RiskMetrics approach, and hence, by far, has been sanctioned by several Governing Bodies throughout the world bank. In short, it measures the value of risk capital stocks in a given period at a certain probability of loss. This measurement can be modified for risk applications through, for example, the potential loss values affirmation in a certain amount of time during the economic life of the project- clearly, a project with a lower VaR is better. It should be noted that it is not always possible or advisable for a company to limit itself to the remote analysis of each risk because the risks and their effects are interdependent and constitute a system .In addition, there are risks which, in combination with other risks, tend to produce effects which they would not have caused by themselves and risks that tend to offset and even cancel each other out.risk, value at risk, confidence intervals, variance, Monte Carlo simulation

ANALYSIS OF HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT

Along with other material, financial resources, human resource is an indispensable element of each work process. The concept of human resource derives exactly from the fact that it has a limited nature and it is consumed by usage in the workplace. Any work process cannot be developed without the labour factor. Work is essentially a conscious activity specific to humans through which they release certain labour objects and transforms them according to his needs

Global economic burden of unmet surgical need for appendicitis

Background There is a substantial gap in provision of adequate surgical care in many low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to identify the economic burden of unmet surgical need for the common condition of appendicitis. Methods Data on the incidence of appendicitis from 170 countries and two different approaches were used to estimate numbers of patients who do not receive surgery: as a fixed proportion of the total unmet surgical need per country (approach 1); and based on country income status (approach 2). Indirect costs with current levels of access and local quality, and those if quality were at the standards of high-income countries, were estimated. A human capital approach was applied, focusing on the economic burden resulting from premature death and absenteeism. Results Excess mortality was 4185 per 100 000 cases of appendicitis using approach 1 and 3448 per 100 000 using approach 2. The economic burden of continuing current levels of access and local quality was US $92 492 million using approach 1 and$73 141 million using approach 2. The economic burden of not providing surgical care to the standards of high-income countries was $95 004 million using approach 1 and$75 666 million using approach 2. The largest share of these costs resulted from premature death (97.7 per cent) and lack of access (97.0 per cent) in contrast to lack of quality. Conclusion For a comparatively non-complex emergency condition such as appendicitis, increasing access to care should be prioritized. Although improving quality of care should not be neglected, increasing provision of care at current standards could reduce societal costs substantially
