Abstract:

This study uses a field method to examine the effects of a group compensation plan on labor productivity, product quality, and organizational performance, in three independent subunits of the same manufacturing plant. More specifically, the study investigates whether the use of two budget-based incentives, a group output-target based scheme and a gain-sharing scheme offered in combination, motivates production teams to improve economic performance in this manufacturing setting. The output-target based scheme is a linear budget-based incentive that rewards individual team performance, providing

Thus although the intention might be that the KPI should promote a specific strategic objective, the very same KPI might drive additional behaviour that mig

Abstract:

Construction zones can greatly affect the traffic flow on roadways, especially when lane closures are required. Traditionally, the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has used traffic management specifications that only allow lane closures and road work to be done during predetermined hours or specifications that require a certain number of lanes to be open at all times. Recently, mobility-based work-zone traffic flow maintenance has been considered. This method requires continuous monitoring of mobility-based performance data and a mechanism to send alerts to the contractors when the mob

Abstract:

MBA Professional Report<br>The purpose of this MBA project is to identify the actual cost savings when a Performance Based Logistics (PBL) contract, with incentives, is awarded to replace a specified maintenance echelon for critical components or subcomponents of systems. We will examine the impact on system availability to determine if a proposed investment will be practical. The entire logistics flow and maintenance processes, to include all associated subactivities, will be analyzed. In order to do this, we must initially identify all costs of operating the current organic maintenance

This thesis addresses questions of how to incorporate quality of care, represented by disutility-bearing effects such as mortality, morbidity and re-admission, in measuring relative performance of public hospitals. Currently, case-mix funding and performance, measured with costs per case-mix adjusted separation, hold hospitals accountable for costs, but not effects, of care, creating economic incentives for quality of care minimising cost per admission. To allow an appropriate trade-off between the value and cost of quality of care a correspondence is demonstrated between maximising net benef

Abstract:

Our energy system is rapidly transforming, partially due to advances in internet and communications technologies that leverage an unprecedented amount of data. Industry proponents of the so-called “smart grid” suggest these technologies facilitate deeper engagement with end-users of energy (utility customers) that can in turn drive behavior-based changes and accelerate a renewable energy transition. While there has been progress in understanding how these technologies change consumer behavior using, for example, real-time feedback, it’s unclear how specific segments (e.g., renters) respond to

This thesis aims to investigate fund managers salaries in relation to their contributions. The study is conducted on the Swedish fund market under a period over five years, 2014-2018, and include 332 funds. The result observed shows a positive relation between salaries and risk-adjusted performance. The result proves that fund managers are able to outperform the market on average, which should not be possible to do systematically over time according to the efficient market hypothesis. It also turns out that salary has a positive relationship with assets under management. This indicates that fu

Abstract:

Performance feedback plays an important role in management accounting, as it is integral to performance measurement and evaluation. The timing of performance feedback is a critical characteristic of accounting information systems and is often a choice variable for managers and management accountants. In this dissertation, I examine the relation between the timing of outcome-based performance feedback and individual performance. I find that immediate outcome-based performance feedback, while benefiting current performance, can limit individuals’ propensity to seek learning opportunities, red

This thesis focuses on evaluating the use of incentive mechanisms for improving project performance in construction projects in South Africa and Nigeria. The literature review reveals that there is no existing framework or model for adopting incentive mechanisms in construction projects in both countries. Most incentive schemes adopted in construction projects are usually focused on achieving a single performance metric. This has led to over-investment of one‟s effort in one area at the expense of other performance metrics. This study advocated the need to incorporate the key performance metri

(2) we also use the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the framework, and analyze the impact on the mutual fund managers'' risk-manipulation behavior of a performance-based incentive plan.

This research provides a theoretical description of how futures can be used to manage the price uncertainty associated with permit purchases. It then eval
