This measure is an easy- to-understand method that recognises improvements in earning only to the extent that they exceed the cost of capital‚ however‚ for one critical flaw: EVA discourages growth. The reason why EVA discourages high growth is because: Divisions with high proportion of expenditures on intangibles such as research and development and employee skill enhancement will tend to show higher

Abstract: The previous lab explored the effect of gravity on free fall. It was determined that acceleration is always constant under free fall. However‚ in this lab‚ acceleration was observed under different forces‚ other than just gravity. Therefore‚ depending on how strong the forces being exerted were‚ acceleration differed. It wasn’t constant anymore. Using a glider on a air track and a pulley‚ different masses were attached at the end of the string and the glider was allowed to move on the

form the basis for classical mechanics. They describe the relationship between the forces acting on a body and its motion due to those forces. They have been expressed in several different ways over nearly three centuries‚ and can be summarized as follows: 1- The first law states that an object continues in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled by an external unbalanced force. Since law defines inertia‚ it is also known as the law of inertia. 2- The second
