2. Evaluation of current divisional and plant measurement system:
The current measurement system of Abrams Company is ROI, each manufacturing plant within the three product divisions have an annual ROI target to meet. The ROI target is set based on budget profit divided by actual beginning of the year net assets. Actual ROI is calculating by actual profit divided by actual beginning of the year net asset. The advantage of the Abrams Company ROI system is it does not consider the investment added during the year, because the investments provide little effort to the year, but more benefit to the future. However, the ROI measurement system has some weakness, such as defer asset replacement, short-term focus at the expense of long-term.
3. Suggestions to improve evaluation system:
⑴ROI can be used combination with other performance measures-balanced set of long-term/short term; financial/non-financial
⑵RI/ EVA can be used instead of ROI.
4. Evaluation of incentive compensation plan:
The incentive compensation plan of Abrams Company is bonus plan, and it calculate accurately based on an equation, and it seems equal for all members. In addition, some adjustments also are made associate with the performance of the managers. The performance is measured by compare of actual profit and budget profit. However, all the measurement is associate with data, sometimes the performance will be influence by variance elements, such as, economic environment, the demand level, material price, cost of labor, and government policy, so the measurement need to improve in some areas.
5. Suggestions: The non-financial performance measurement system should be established. The balanced scorecard is a good choice for company measure performance. With a good performance measurement system, the incentive compensation plan will be improved.
